[edit] MAX Awards

MAX Awards (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Local awards program sponsored by a college. Many of the winners are notable, but notability is not inherited. Also, strong conflict of interest suspicion - article created by a single purpose account. No assertion of notability beyond simply existing and giving out trophies to big companies.

  • There appear to be a bunch of awards programs going by this name, and the coverage I can find of this particular program doesn't seem to be very useful in establishing notability. Delete unless someone points out strong references soon. Note that this was speedied on Dec. 11 as spam, and the way it's written leans towards the promotional.

  • Delete, no apparent notability. I did learn that Georgia has both Zell Miller and an apparently unrelated store-design consulting firm called Miller Zell, though. What are the odds? --Dhartung | Talk 04:24, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment Found some stuff on it, including this and this. Just might be notable. --Sharkface217 02:28, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
Comment. Your first link is about the TMA award, not MAX award, and really it's a press release about the company (Alogent) that won it, not the award anyway. The second link is a press release (and only a paragraph long) that says the deadline for entering is Nov. 20 and gives a phone number to call to self-nominate. How do either of these help notability? Keeper | 76 15:05, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
