Joel Warady Group

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

While Joel Warady may be notable, this company is not. A search brings up nothing but press releases or non-notable industry coverage related to Warady. Flowanda | Talk 01:55, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete The expertise section also makes it look like an advertising page. Lets  drink Tea 02:19, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete The Reuters source refers to the subject indirectly only. It is not a story on the subject itself...which would merit some notability. --Artene50 (talk) 06:20, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as per WP:SPAM. He might be notable, his company isn't. --Ged UK (talk) 11:33, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:ORG and WP:SPAM. JohnCD (talk) 12:01, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Do Not Delete Joel Warady Group is the chief marketing company for several notable brands including Enjoy Life Foods (the market leader for Gluten and Allergen-Free foods), Mirage Oral Care (UK brand) and is the chief strategist for Tula Foods (an emerging market leader for whey-protein based yogurt). The company is fairly small and PRIVATELY HELD, which would explain why there are few articles written soley about the Joel Warady Group. Joel Warady, the owner, is the brand itself. He is an extension of the company. —Preceding unsigned comment added by K.duan2009 (talk • contribs) 15:07, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment I see you are the creator of the article. If you could improve it per WP:CITE with some quality 3rd party references to demonstrate its notability, you might change some minds here.--Rtphokie (talk) 13:56, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment The size of the company isn't the sole reason there are no sources about it. It's also because it appears to be an unremarkable company. Perhaps as it grows it will become more notable. If he is the brand himself, then this should possibly be merged into his article. Seems like even less of a reason to keep this one. -- Ged UK  15:31, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete there is some hope of making this article into something notable but not as written. It reads like a press release or glossy brochure about the company.  Not seeing the significant 3rd party coverage that WP:NOTE requires.--Rtphokie (talk) 13:55, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * DO NOT DELETE 3rd Party Mention -- Citation html is not working, however, Joe Warady Group is featured in Seth Godin's book "Bull Market in 2004" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.54.210.49 (talk) 18:22, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * How is it mentioned? Is there a quote? -- Ged UK  18:30, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment' This is the same guy except using a IP to make a comment.Reporting to the noticeboard SNESCDADDON (talk) 19:26, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The case has been delisted at WP:SPI. It is clear that the user has not deliberately attempted to vote stack. Per WP:AGF, I think we can accept that this is an error by an inexperienced user. Mayalld (talk) 21:45, 27 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete and has been so tagged. ukexpat (talk) 20:04, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedied, although if anyone would like to continue discussing or see the text, I'll be happy to undelete it. This seems like one of the easier calls to me, because of "The company has launched successful marketing campaigns for clients utilizing Facebook, MySpace, Twitter as well as throughout the blogosphere,  establishing relationships with key influencers that are cost efficient and effective in driving sales."  I'm uncomfortable with allowing Wikipedia to serve as one of their sales platforms for another 5 days, and I couldn't find a single salvageable paragraph. - Dan Dank55 (push to talk) 22:03, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
