I don't think this can be speedied, so I'm nominating it here as an essay full of wp:original research.  Ignatz mice•talk 04:02, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't understand you. What means "speedied"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wattaman (talk • contribs) 04:42, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Some articles are sufficiently free of encyclopaedic content, or blatantly promotional enough or about subjects that are non-notable to such an extent that they can be deleted without the need for a longer, formal process like this one. In such instances, articles can be nominated (or "tagged") for speedy deletion. If there are no objections, the article may be deleted immediately by an administrator. In cases where such guidelines do not apply but someone thinks an article should be deleted, they can nominate the article via the proposed for deletion process or the articles for deletion process (as in this case). This method gives others an opportunity to make comment, ask questions and debate the merits of the article in question. Stalwart 111  05:45, 19 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete, not only is this an essay, it looks very promotional too. J I P  &#124; Talk 05:06, 19 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep, Dumb presentation of a notable topic. History2007 (talk) 20:12, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I think Adsense is notable and some competitors might be notable, but the suggestion here seems to be that the companies listed are notable because they compete with Adsense or that somehow being in competition to Adsense is so inherently notable that the subject list is a notable concept. I disagree with both but would be interested in what you think confers notability in this case. I wouldn't be opposed to a redirect if there is a good target (like the one suggested by Dream Focus).

 * Oops! Just realised my colleague H2007 has elected to vanish and that I'm unlikely to get a reply. Never mind. Stalwart 111  06:54, 20 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Redirect to List of advertising networks, merging anything not on the list already, to there.  D r e a m Focus  00:15, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete This is a spam farm. Since no other articles currently redirect here and the title isn't a common search phrase, there is no need for a redirect.  Them From  Space  15:27, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
