The result was   delete. There is a clear consensus that the subject of the article is not notable and that the purpose of the article is to promote its subject (note the latter reason derives from more than the mere allegation of paid editing; paid editing not being a reason in and of itself for deletion).

This is a paid editing piece that was solicited by it's subject in violation of our conflict of interest guidelines and our policy that Wikipedia is not a medium for self-promotion. This page was developed through this job on elance.com in which the client "lucalongobardi" wrote ''looking to create a nice report story page on my company also I would like to attach my name as the founder of the company, to my wife name, that she´s already on wikipedia, and increase exposure on google. and also I would like to hire somebody that can increase my exposure and my company exposure on search engines''. The service provider is "annaloza", the same account name as the single purpose account that signed up to create this. This should be deleted as a promotional puff piece of a nonnotable subject.

 * 'Delete Fails notability. Married to a notable person does not work in my opinion, and mention in a few places as head of company is not what I would consider comprehensive coverage. Paying someone else to write an article about you or your business is the same as doing it yourself, as far as I am concerned.  Self-promotion. If you are truly notable you will eventually get written about without paying.  Turgan Talk 10:05, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
