Hi. You nominated my article Jobs SB Singapore for failing notability criteria or WP:CORP. It was also nominated for advertising. I removed the spammy parts of the article and left out only parts verified by secondary sources.

Wouldn't that not satisfy this criterion in Wikipedia, that you cited?

''A company, corporation, organization, team, religion, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in secondary sources. Such sources must be reliable, and independent of the subject.''

Also on the article's secondary source Human Resources Magazine's not being notable enough, I'd like to point out that it is an Australian based industry focused magazine that covered an event on JobsDB Singapore.(http://www.humanresourcesmagazine.com.au/) I don't know if its being industry focused makes you deem it local and having a small market therefore not notable enough.

I would really appreciate some clarification on this and how JobsDB is a non-notable corporation vs say Standard Chartered which also has articles in Wikipedia. Thanks. User:Sunshine2002 (Talk) 10:36, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
