Procedural nom for a contested PROD - no references to support notability per WP:CORP and decidedly spammy per WP:SPAM. ukexpat (talk) 14:26, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete. No indication of notability; copyvio. I42 (talk) 14:42, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete. While the article might make some unsubstantiated claim of importance by inspiring a TV show, and the alleged copyvio text says that it is copied from Wikipedia, the tone remains obvious advertising: AGI staff of former career law enforcement professionals use their combined 300 years of experience to assist Fortune 500 corporations, public institutions, individuals, and law enforcement agencies in solving many types of cases. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 16:51, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Academy Group Defence
 * Academy Group is somewhat similar to Control Risks Group, an organization run by former Law Enforcement professionals, most of them retired from FBI. I was away from Wikipedia for a couple of months which is why I wasn't aware of the deletion. I had to recreate the page, and I will arrange the sources and avoid any type of advertising tone (it wasn't my intention). Millennium TV series (the Millennium Group) is influenced by the Academy Group, which the makers acknowledged in the DVD bonus features of the first season. I think the deletion is a mistake, instead of advising to add sources and remove the advertisement style (though it was noted by many third parties).--Cyril Thomas (talk) 13:17, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
