This article has already been deleted five times, most recently on 30 April. Its latest incarnation is under this new title, presumably to get around the salting of Checkmarx. Past versions of the article relied heavily on primary sources or misrepresentation of sources as independent. The sources look marginally better this time (or maybe I'm just misremembering…? Could an admin compare this version to the deleted ones please?), though even the ones which aren't primary seem like lightly reworked press releases. I'm therefore leaning towards delete again, and would appreciate further opinions. Psychonaut (talk) 06:50, 12 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete the article per G4, salt this title too and indef the creator as WP:NOTHERE - it's obvious this new title is an attempt to circumvent the salting of another title. They are clearly the same company (for non-admins, the lede was discussed in the last AFD and this one is basically word-for-word) and that sort of thing that needs to go via DRV.

 * Note: As this problem has persisted since 2007 I have identified (some of) the accounts responsible and posted a sockpuppet investigation report at Sockpuppet investigations/Grenoble jojo and a spam report at MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist. —Psychonaut (talk) 09:27, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete pretty clearly created just to get around salted title. If they do it again I guess the next step is adding Checkmarx to the edit filter. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  12:29, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
