Celebrity Foods, Inc.
On 17 June, Gmaxwell blanked this article with the explanation that it was spam. On 18 June, I reverted. As it obviously is Gmaxwell's intention that the article be removed from Wikipedia, I'm listing it here (and notifying both Gmaxwell and the article's author). I don't know whether the company is notable, so this is not a vote. If kept, the article definitely requires major revision, as it does read like an advertisement. &mdash;David Levy 04:00, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Not sure if they're notable, but this is clearly an ad. A google search shows that (a) it's an MLM that spams job sites to recruit, and (b) a lot of people really, really hate them. Fan1967 04:11, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete article as written is spam.--Peta 05:06, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Pure advertisement. No assertion of notability. Fiddle Faddle 06:57, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, fails WP:SPAM and WP:CORP. --Coredesat 10:20, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, without prejudice; the company might be worthwhile, but this text is puffery. Smerdis of Tlön 14:17, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as advertising; no evidence of notability presented. Dpbsmith (talk) 15:17, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete advertisin. sigh, hire an ad agency--->|Newyorktimescrossword 21:59, 21 June 2006 (UTC)|
 * Delete per all above. Actually, I'd intended to put a copyvio notice up since the content was just copied from some website. Since tawker bot's whitelist was goofed and it reverted me, I missed that the template text never made it in. --Gmaxwell 06:49, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment This company is not an MLM. I am not sure where you got that impression, but that accusation is false.  Celebrity Foods does use job sites on the web to recruit sales representatives, customer service reps, warehouse workers, etc., but none are the for the use as an MLM.  In response to this being a copyright violation, this is also a false accusation, as this was written and revised based upon the things that I know about the company.  Finally, the fact that a Google search was performed and there are some dissatisfied customers, this should not have anything to do with this article being nominated for deletion.  I am sure that Wikipedia has articles on other items that are disliked by people, yet those entries remain.  Numerous revisions have been made in an attempt to be accepted, yet I am unsure what needs to be edited to make this sound less like an advertisement.  This is all factual information about Celebrity Foods presented for the purposes of providing basic information.  Advertisement is not the aim.  What suggestions or links to assistance can you provide to help? --User.Celebrityfoods
