[edit] The Bomstein Agency
Non-notable corporation no references going beyond trivial coverage. Tagged for notability since January. Initially prodded, but that was removed. No significant edits coming from anyone aside from a single purpose author or the company's IP. - Optigan13 00:35, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, as non-notable. Thanks, Codelyoko193 (T/C) 02:59, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete A thorough search reveals no proof of the importance of this subject. It is non notable. --Stormbay 04:58, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete: Non notable (fails WP:CORP). - Rjd0060 05:37, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. The references appear sufficient to establish notability as a large ad agency in the Washington, D.C. area. --Eastmain 14:11, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
- I added an article from the Washington Post as a reference as well as confirmation about some of the awards. --Eastmain 14:45, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
- I still feel the article should be deleted. The Washington Post only makes a mention of the company as the creators of the ad campaign, and does not address the company directly. The ad awards are regional in nature and only do passing mentions. The other concern I have is what I noted before. The only two major editors have been a single purpose author and from the company's own IP. I think this is an advertisement masquerading as an article. If someone from the company hadn't written this article I don't think it would exist. - Optigan13 19:23, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
- The article lacks decent sources. I also feel that it is a thinly veiled ad/vanity piece based on the fact of who were the major editors. --Stormbay 00:23, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

- Delete. The references make it clear that the company exists, but fail to make any real claim of importance or notability. -- Terraxos (talk) 18:23, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
