Advertising with two IPs editwarring to get the promo in The Banner talk 15:21, 1 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Strong keep - AfD is not for sorting out issues that can be fixed in the course of normal editing. If there is a problem with IP editors, the solution is semi-protection WP:RFPP is thataway. Problems with promotional tones or advertising can be dealt with in the normal course of editing.
 * If have tried but the promo was always put back in. The Banner talk 21:39, 1 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep - I'm not really seeing any reason to delete, The article isn't promotional at all?.... – Davey 2010 Talk 18:45, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
 * The section "Summer 2015 Itineraries" is the list of tourist destinations available, ready to book. The Banner talk 21:39, 1 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep - I'm not really seeing any reason to delete, as Davey2010 said, and this article doesn't seem promotional to me. Keep this article as it is now! Kefalonitis94 (talk) 19:23, 1 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep - For all of the above reasons I vote to keep this article as it is! 62.1.132.114 (talk) 19:25, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Don't forget to tell that you are the one putting al the tourist-destinations in the article. The Banner talk 21:39, 1 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep - while I appreciate the desire to keep these neat and tidy, the first paragraph gives a couple of good reasons this should be kept. MSC is one of the largest shipping companies in the world and this is a notable division of it. That said, it might be worth a visit to WP:RFPP if IPs are edit-warring over it.

 * Sorry, just notice that admin Mjroots has done exactly that. I think that should take care of the nominator's most immediate concerns.  St ★ lwart 1 1 1 01:48, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
 * That it was a serious concern can be seen here: IP mass reverting all my edits and getting himself blocked. <span style="font-family:'Old English Text MT',serif;color:green">The Banner <i style="color:maroon">talk</i> 18:22, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

Okay, let me be nice and friendly. I have removed the tourist again. Hope it stays out. And just saying "Problems with promotional tones or advertising can be dealt with in the normal course of editing." is not going to work without doing something. That will just protect the spammers and leaves the spam in the articles, jeopardising the neutral status of Wikipedia. For now: speedy close as keep and I expect action from other when the spam returns. <span style="font-family:'Old English Text MT',serif;color:green">The Banner <i style="color:maroon">talk</i> 18:49, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm keeping a weather eye on the article. Semi-protection can be enabled for as long as is necessary, even permanently if needs be. Mjroots (talk) 18:58, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
