• Revise of course I'm going to say this because I made the page and would hate for my time and well-intentioned effort go to waste, but I'm curious as to what you think makes it so much of an advertisement and I'd like to revise it so that it does not have such a connotation.Mathninja 04:50, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. The mention of the money-back guarantee is probably what makes this read like an ad the most. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 06:21, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Mathninja, it looks like an advertisement because the current version says things like "Sabio is known for...hiring only teachers that have perfected the course they teach..." and "Sabio Academy offers a money-back guarantee for all of its classes." That isn't what would be in an encylcopedia. But even if you revised these statements, it would still almost certainly be deleted because it doesn't seem notable. It doesn't meet the standards in WP:CORP#Criteria_for_companies_and_corporations. It's a shame that this is happening to your efforts, and I believe that they were well-intentioned, but I hope you see it as part of learning more about Wikipedia. I think you might be wasting your time trying to revise this article but I really hope keep contributing to other articles here. Flying Jazz 06:31, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

• I guess i was comparing it with the sites of competing companies on wikipedia like Sylvan Learning who had things listed like "The Sylvan Advantage" and talked about their policy of a token reward system, and in the same way, I am just making mention of their hiring and money-back policies. I cannot see what makes this site different.Mathninja 14:56, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

• For one thing, Sylvan Learning is huge, and notable, and people have heard of it. Compare both companies against the standards listed in WP:CORP and you'll see what makes them different. Fan-1967 16:36, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
