[edit] Virtugo

Software corporation that was created in 2005. A search on Google finds 44 hits, many of which refer to a defunct dating service that used the name prior to December 2004.[1] No indication that there is an independent source for information on the company. Delete as per WP:V and Wikipedia is not a soapbox unless reliable sources are provided to verify the information in the article. --Allen3 ^talk 23:07, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

The company is real, see website www.virtugo.com. Website details the evolution of the company from a parent Metilinx, see www.metilinx.com. Products being sold to clients using VMWare.

Secondly, the posting is a definition, not a soapbox of opinion. It details the definition of the company and what it does.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.45.115.170 (talk • contribs) 17:38, March 6, 2006 (UTC)

With the only available information on the company coming from the compny's own website, it is not possible to obtain the reliable, published sources required by Wikipedia:Verifiability (the compny's website while useful has an inherent bias that reduces the reliability of the site). With the article having been created by a user named Virtugo (talk · contribs) it also appears to qualify as "self promotion", the second item listed under WP:NOT#Wikipedia is not a soapbox. --Allen3 ^talk 18:11, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
