[edit] Vendormate

This page was created by the company's co-founder. The company doesn't seem to be notable. Closercate1 22:15, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. I don't know how you know it is the company's co-founder. But it was created by Jkatzen (talk · contribs) and it's at least troubling that the director of marketing for the company is Joey Katzen. [1]Pascal.Tesson 01:14, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Sure, if consensus is that it's inappropriate, pull it down. I put up a basic factual stub page for it, b/c it's a real company with a real service. It's remained here for nearly a year without a concern until now; I have an inkling that this AfD is the result of an editor getting vengeful following a discussion on the Logo talk page.

--Wow, you got away with it for a whole year?! I'm sure you're oging to donate all of ur procedes to Wikipedia ;-) Closercate1 23:21, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Additional info: if it's useful, it's been written about in one (though not multiple) publications independently: Atlanta Business Chronicle

• Delete, I'm afraid. I wish I could give weight to the fact that Jkatzen is a respected Wikipedian, but I feel I have to put my personal biases aside. It appears the company objectively does not meet WP:CORP. I note the lack of editing experience by the nominator; I think it's standard practice to take that into account when closing the debate.

• Delete, per above; contains no case for notability, and uses credential as a verb. - Smerdis of Tlön 15:29, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
