Why it was deleted
The problem was not whether or not this a real company. It's whether or not your user page is being used to facilitate your contribution to the encyclopedia project, or as a vehicle for advertising. As to your comparison with Hotjobs.com, notable companies (per the Wikipedia definition) may merit articles in the main part of the encyclopedia, but non-notable ones do not. You're welcome to make any encyclopedic contributions. --Dgies 15:59, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
