ABCs of attraction

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Relisting of company mistakenly listed at AfD for two unrelated books, at Articles for deletion/Can I Retire?. The question as I see it is whether the company is separately notable from the founder JT Tran.  DGG ( talk ) 17:08, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep Enough coverage in reliable sources. One mentions the company in its title: Nguyen, Vicky. "NBC's Shocking Investigation into the ABCs of Attraction". There's no link to it in the article, but is here on YouTube. SpeakFree (talk)(contribs) 17:50, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment That link looks more promotional than a WP:RS. Autarch (talk) 23:15, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I agree, YouTube isn't a reliable source, but NBC is, and being featured on "Emmy winning reporter Vicky Nguyen"'s show is. ~dee  ( talk? ) 12:08, 26 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep I was the original author of this article. I'm looking to rewrite it and add more relevant content and sources that will distinguish it from JT Tran. As you can see from the references already listed, and more which I will be adding, the company has been widely covered since its establishment, having been featured on numerous television programs, newspapers and magazines as being one of the popular (and legitimate) PUA companies today.

 * What is "PUA"? Please don't use obscure acronyms without explaining them. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:04, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
 * PUA is Pickup artist, I believe. ~dee  ( talk? ) 14:54, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment. Since you haven't begun, I have taken it to my sandbox to see what I can do with it and will show you what I have done once completed. ~dee  ( talk? ) 16:02, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Merge with JT Tran. Autarch (talk) 23:01, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Conditional Keep Have checked that the sources quoted do appear that this article stands in its own right, if it has further content. Perhaps Josh769 can paste his draft notes onto the Talk page to show that more relevant content is on its way.  Just a thought.  Mediation4u (talk) 11:53, 26 March 2012 (UTC) editing is fun
 * Keep' As long as the content will be different from JT Tran as promised, from what I saw of the sources, I think it is notable enough to have its own page. ~dee  ( talk? ) 11:56, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete basically an infomercial. Jarvis Sherbourne (talk) 17:14, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - has received the same amount of coverage as Love Systems, PickUp 101, etc and featured on NBC and ABC and several magazines (different periods). Adotrde (talk) 14:03, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
