BigTent

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Recreated CSD, non-notable website article written by an SPA. Websites mentioning that it was purchased by a more notable company do not make this company notable. If Lady Gaga buys a sandwich, we don't make an article for that individual sandwich. I should also mention that the more notable parent company now redirects to the guy who owns that. ▫  Johnny Mr Nin ja  02:36, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

I respectfully contend that this article is not promotion any more than the pages for Ning, GroupSpaces, etc. If this page is viewed as promotion, all similar wikipedia pages of startup companies should be nominated for deletion.

If the issue is nonnotability, BigTent should be a brief mention on a Federated Media page, and the Federated Media page should not just redirect to its CEO. -Numerusclausus, BigTent page creator. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Numerusclausus (talk • contribs) 03:07, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
