Is this notable? Reichsfürst (talk) 18:17, 16 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep This article is notable, and well-sourced. This is a  very good idea of saving dead miles.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.37.170.64 (talk) 19:15, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * This IP has few other edits on Wikipedia and all but one of those are to the article in question MarnetteD | Talk 21:38, 16 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Whether it is a good idea or not does not establish notability. Reichsfürst (talk) 19:22, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

 * This IP has not edited on Wikipedia since October 2009 MarnetteD | Talk 21:38, 16 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete. Completely self-sourced, except for the government sources, which are unrelated to the company and thus violates WP:SYNTH. And whether it is a good idea or not is what is up for discussion here. --Saddhiyama (talk) 21:12, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete I can't see where the site meets WP:WEB at this time. Wildthing61476 (talk) 21:14, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. Somewhere, the Hormel CEO's ears are burning. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 21:15, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Took me a minute...Reichsfürst (talk) 21:22, 16 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete Oh, _now_ I get it, Bugs! :-) -- SarekOfVulcan (talk) 21:18, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Article is just an advertisement for the website. MarnetteD | Talk 21:27, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Top 3 pages of Google search are nothing but the name's registration on many popular Social Media sites using the same drivel over and over again. I have excised 5 links that go to the companys site that masqueraded as references from the article. Hasteur (talk) 21:30, 16 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep It looks to be a group targeting.It is not a bad idea........... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomcatuy (talk • contribs) 21:50, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

 * The part about "looks to be a group targeting" is spot-on. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 22:25, 16 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete as wholly promotional. Fails WP:GNG. --Alan the Roving Ambassador (talk) 21:58, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete as spam. Miss E. Lovetinkle (talk) 22:11, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Notability has not been established, and the article appears to be a thinly veiled advertisement for the company (the registration is free "reference" is especially spammy). - SudoGhost&trade; 02:59, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * delete Looks like an interesting business. Interesting != notable. JoshuaZ (talk) 03:18, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * see Sockpuppet investigations/San2011 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Reichsfürst (talk • contribs) 08:38, 17 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete - per G11 as spam, so tagged. ukexpat (talk) 15:23, 17 June 2011 (UTC)


 * The speedy was declined. Is there anyway that this can be closed per SNOW so we don't have to put up with more socking? The only keep votes are by confirmed socks with the possible exception of the IP from India. MarnetteD | Talk 16:21, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Since the speedy was declined, and there's a reasonable certainty that one of the Keep !votes came from someone outside the sock/meat farm, the WP:DELETE standard is to allow the AfD to run for the full seven days. I agree that it probably should go as a WP:SNOW closure, though. I suppose a previously-uninvolved admin could WP:IAR and snow-close it, were they so inclined. --Alan the Roving Ambassador (talk) 16:59, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Based on the puppetry, I'd recommend that this AfD be played 100% by the book so that (as noted on the CSD decline) when the article gets re-created we can use CSD:G4 (Re-creation in contravention of AfD discussion) we can stand on absoluteley firm ground. Hasteur (talk) 17:02, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Hrm. Good call. --Alan the Roving Ambassador (talk) 17:13, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * The socks seem to have disappeared, as they know the game is up. Best to roast this spam for the full 7 days, as per procedure. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 17:48, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * MMMMMM roasted spam. My thanks to everyone for their replies. It doesn't matter how long I've edited here there is always something new to learn and you all have helped me do that today. Cheers. MarnetteD | Talk 18:39, 17 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep the article.Modification required>> — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.37.169.254 (talk) 19:37, 17 June 2011 (UTC)  — 82.37.169.254 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * I'm thinking we can add this IP to the list above. Wildthing61476 (talk) 19:42, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Likely. Same ISP as, and geolocates within a few miles. --Alan the Roving Ambassador (talk) 19:45, 17 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep writing is nearly notable — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.38.198.53 (talk) 20:39, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * An IP that hasn't edited in 2 years comes in to make this comment? More laundry? Wildthing61476 (talk) 20:42, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * "Nearly" notable. That's a good one. The article creator "nearly" knows English. :) ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 20:44, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Is "nearly notable" anything like the fact that Spam is "nearly" like meat?MarnetteD | Talk 23:19, 17 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep This article.Have more discussions? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.222.133.189 (talk) 20:56, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * And there's another one. Like fish in a barrel...Wildthing61476 (talk) 20:58, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * The last two are from the same ISP: Cwie. Likely meatpuppets, or someone going in through a proxy and using a playground account. --Alan the Roving Ambassador (talk) 21:08, 17 June 2011 (UTC)

SPI concludes that the 4 registered users are all the same guy. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 08:41, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * More specifically, a checkuser has confirmed that they are the same person. JamesBWatson (talk) 11:01, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Several more likely IP meatpuppets since that list was drawn up. I see that "keep" reasons now include "It is not a bad idea", "Every where it is green revolution", "This is a very good idea of saving dead miles", "Have more discussions?", "Similar to Uship" "Modification required" and "It looks to be a group targeting". Pretty persuasive, eh? JamesBWatson (talk) 11:13, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
