Sigh. Another great example of why we delete promotional articles rather than fixing them. I'm declining the db-spam speedy deletion because the article has been around 6 months, which makes it hard for the tagger and me to make the case that we're right and everyone else who's worked on the article is wrong; we need to come to AfD to demonstrate consensus. However, my vote here at AfD is speedy deletion. For anyone who doesn't see any problem with this article, I have an emerging markets fund that is rated #1, with guaranteed growth, but only for the first 100 lucky investors. - Dank (push to talk) 20:28, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete: Technically salvagable, but to what end? Best to start afresh with an entirely new article and interested impartial editors, and delete this one in the meantime. Chase me ladies, I&#39;m the Cavalry (talk) 20:36, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - I am very much focused on the improvement of coverage of private equity subjects on wikipedia but as currently constructed this article does not cover a separate topic. I don't even know if there is enough content of note here to warrant a section in the main Private equity article.  It is really just an excuse to have a list of China-focused private equity firms. I do think the nominator needs to beef up the criteria for deletion. |►  ϋrбan яeneωaℓ  •  TALK  ◄| 21:01, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Note Since we generally speedy-delete spam rather than having a 7 day discussion, I'm going to assume from the votes that that's what you guys want, unless you say otherwise within roughly 20 hours. - Dank (push to talk) 16:51, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
 * That's my view. Bigdaddy1981 (talk) 00:56, 14 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Now speedied. I'd appreciate it if someone else would do the paperwork and close. - Dank (push to talk) 15:06, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
