[edit] Northwestern Mutual - Louisville and related articles

Delete per Chains and Franchises of WP:CORP. This page does not provide any useful corporate information, and is more of an advertisement for a specific NML office. If this were acceptable, then there would be pages on every single branch office that is a part of NML (or of any company for that matter), which is wholly unnecessary.

• Addendum: Apparently there are many such articles, such as The Bohannon Group, The Stewart Financial Group, Theodore Financial Group, The Waltos Group, The Effner Financial Group, The Columns Resource Group... and they've been created/edited by the same people, most recently 38.192.2.179 (see his/her contributions page). It would not surprise me if this was a person merely interested in increasing NML's presence on Wikipedia through these "spamvertisement" means. These are simply local insurance offices with no relevance to NML corporate; while adding information about NML as a corporation would be helpful on their main page, these are local agent offices, and information on them would be better off deleted than merged. (After all, imagine having a list of every Allstate agent on their page... yikes!) --Kinu 02:08, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Perhaps someone could take the time to AfD all above mentioned subsiduaries - I'm off! Camillus (talk) 02:30, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
    • I think I've got most of them. If anyone finds one based on a search or the aforementioned anonymous user's contributions page, feel free to tag it as well. --Kinu 03:21, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete or merge with Northwestern Mutual. Camillus (talk) 01:56, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom --djrobgordon 07:36, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete This and the other 34 (i think) pages tagged by the nom or Kinu. I think they have tagged every branch office that appears on the what links here page from Northwestern Mutual other than Russell Investment Group and McTigue Financial Group. That makes sense as those are larger companies recently aquired by Northwestern and we dont need this neccessary mass purge to get caught up in debating these 2.Obina 11:51, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Actually, McTigue Financial Group should be a part of this group of AfDs, as that is another one of those local branch offices/franchisees as defined above, and not a company acquired by NML. That article is a party to this VSCA as well. But correct, the article on the Frank Russell Co. should be a keep. --Kinu 15:25, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
