EightStar
Delete This is clearly an advertisment. information written and sourced entirely by company. Librarianofages 02:56, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. --JChap 03:23, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak delete - The company does seen to get around 10,000 ghits once you exclude wikipedia, gnu, etc. If someone were to rewrite it as a decent article or stub I would change my vote. Megapixie 03:31, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as advertising, unless the advertising can be removed and a decent article can be written about it. --Coredesat 07:37, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete No evidence shown that the company passes WP:CORP Kevin 09:12, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete advertisement.  Tychocat 09:39, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete There are under 400 Ghits (not 10k) many of them for a LaTeX symbol.    Dl yo ns 493   Ta lk  12:19, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Out of curiosity - what search string are you using ? this search brings back about 10k results. Are you excluding similar results ? Megapixie 05:06, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
 * That search give 225 distinct Ghits by my count - just go to the last one. The seach I did myself was just for EightStar.   Dl yo ns 493   Ta lk   13:10, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Mmmm, to be fair searching for DeBeers only brings back 770 unique ghits. DeBeers and Diamond brings back 713. Admittedly it brings back 398,000 non-unique hits. So I don't think the uniqueness criteria is that great an idea - since are we saying that this company is 1/4 as notable as DeBeers ? That's still pretty notable.

 * Weak Delete Somewhat notable, but the manner in which is written in makes it read like an advertisement. If someone can give it a re-write, I may be inclinded to change to keep.--Auger Martel 10:49, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
