 * Delete Since none of the references meet the notability guidelines. The 'Endeavour' and 'CrunchBase' references do not meet the  depth of coverage guideline, whereas the 'Issues with Smowtion' and 'IMReportCard' reference do not meet the  self published sources guideline.  - SudoGhost (talk) 01:29, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete, yet another global technology company which focuses on online advertising in Web 2.0 marketplaces. If this is "improved" I quail to think of what it was like before.  Penalty of -25 notability points for "global" and -50 for "Web 2.0".  - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 15:05, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment Sad to listen your thoughts on the article, nonetheless fail to find your pro-deleting comments on truly 'unacceptable' articles listed on List of advertising networks - namely ClickDiario Network, Chitika and Buysellads. Maybe it's you lacking of NPOV? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.55.231.34 (talk) 16:21, 22 March 2011 (UTC)  — 190.55.231.34 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * I have never made a secret of my opinion that almost every online business lacks the kind of enduring historic significance that would be needed to make them encyclopedia subjects. You also missed the AfD on WP:Articles for deletion/Buysellads, which I (predictably) think should be deleted as well. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 16:51, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
 * @Ihcoyc By re-reading what I did post, I realised I was rude unneccesarily. So I would like to apologise with you first of all. 190.55.231.34 (talk) 01:15, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
