Proposed deletion of Business Technology Optimization


The article Business Technology Optimization has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * This is an essay of original research about a dubious neologism, part of an emerging business philosophy. The strongly inappropriate tone (...an enterprise software product category focused on helping businesses ensure that every dollar invested in information technology, every resource allocated, and every application in development or production meets business goals...) makes it look like this article is a coatrack meant to sell something.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing  will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 15:43, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
