The article reads as a self-promoting advertisement. No references are provided, nor could I locate any WP:RS suggesting this company would meet WP:N. Additionally, article seems to have been made by a WP:SPA. Listed CEO also wikilinks to a soap opera character so perhaps this is an elaborate joke?

I've been editing it to remove any material that appears to be promotional or loathing of the brand, but I can assure you that by no means is this some kind of joke. Victoria Newman also happens to be a very common name, and there is no relation to the soap opera actress. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JamesGreenwichEd (talk • contribs) 03:00, 25 June 2010 (UTC) — JamesGreenwichEd (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Appears fine now. Make aware of any promotional flaws that you see. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JamesGreenwichEd (talk • contribs) 03:29, 25 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Strong delete. This is unsourced, not notable, and seems a clear case of self-promotion. Becritical (talk) 04:54, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete, blatant spam: the entire thing reads like a sales brochure. (Uncertain what this has to do with a soap opera actress, and I suspect one comment may have gone astray.) - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 14:22, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

It was previously referred to as Greenwich Education and Prep. Google that phrase. But overhaul completed of promotional aspect. Revise comments if change is seen. --JamesGreenwichEd (talk) 15:05, 25 June 2010 (UTC)--JamesGreenwichEd (talk) 15:05, 25 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Strong delete: nothing like WP:N. Dewritech (talk) 19:01, 25 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete, no example of passing notability. Smerdis, the CEO's name is "Victoria Newman"; when the article was nominated, it linked that name, and "Victoria Newman" is the name of a soap opera character.  Nyttend (talk) 12:56, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

Keep Notability? It's extremely notable in Greenwich, CT and the surrounding communities. It's unfair to define notability on a national scale. There's no reason this page shouldn't exist, since pages for prep schools on New England appear, as well as private schools in CT, of which it is a member of both. To revoke this page would be saying that it is OK for similar schools like Brunswick to have a page, but wrong for Greenwich Education group to have its own page, which would be unfair in every sense of the word.--69.121.232.78 (talk) 20:14, 28 June 2010 (UTC) — 69.121.232.78 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

 * Delete It's not a school, just a private tutoring company. Non-notable. --MelanieN (talk) 15:55, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
