Rock your Religion

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

The article claims the subject is a "set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature and purpose of the universe" and a "religious experience", but examination of the references shows this "Rock Your Religion" is neither - it is a company making and selling accessories featuring religious symbols. Unsure if this passes WP:CORP, as the references given seem to be of a promotional press-release bent. I don't know if this qualifies under CSD#G11, so sending it to AfD. ~Matticus UC 10:28, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: the article has now been edited to make it clear it is a business and the "set of beliefs"/"religious experience" bit has been removed. ~Matticus UC 11:20, 21 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete. I don't see much of a notability assertion in there. --Blanchardb- Me  MyEarsMyMouth-timed 17:23, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Wikipedia has a policy against articles about "hip jewelry companies", or at least it ought to. Mandsford (talk) 17:47, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete G11 (spam). So tagged.  The article is clearly written in a way intended not only to promote the company, but to promote itself to a particular demographic, based on the dialect it's using. -- Dennis The Tiger   (Rawr and stuff) 22:23, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as per DTT: blatant self-promotion. --Paularblaster (talk) 00:03, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Nix It- Track down the perps and make them pay for having it up here.---Iconoclast.Horizon (talk) 06:09, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I like that idea-- make them pay! In 2008, look for the "jigsaw globe" Wikipedia pendant and the "green ladybug" Wikimedia Foundation earrings!  Very hip.Mandsford (talk) 12:28, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep ~ Nix, 'make them pay', 'Hip' jigsaw globe, green ladybug? Blatant versus cleary written, demographic dialect after the set of beliefs/religious experience was removed, Quite sure I don't understand, policy against 'hip jewelry'', seems everybody is misleading and puzzling the debate for their own Jollification.

 * Comment- The comments are not against 'hip jewelry' or even 'religious jewelry', I live in Austin and there is a store or stand on every corner selling it. Point being: this is not an advertising space, no matter how 'clearly written' it is. Go buy some space in cyber, it's more than obviously not notable. The only jollification I see is that there is even a debate about it.---Iconoclast.Horizon (talk) 17:30, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
