The Institute of Brand Science

 * - (View AfD) (View log)

First, brand "science" is not actually science as such. Second, this article has zero independent sources. Third, the organisation is a small group within a university business school - my university department had half a dozen units like this. Fourth, the article reads as a press release, and includes some truly appalling management consultant bullshit. Guy (Help!) 15:38, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - a previous incarnation of this article was listed for deletion at Articles for deletion/Zyman Institute of Brand Science. --Muchness 16:03, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete or redirect without merge to Goizueta Business School. Reads like a press release; no independent sources to establish notability. --Muchness 16:03, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Comment:  "The Institute of Brand Science" is a cut-and-paste page-move copy of Zyman Institute of Brand Science. Although the new title is correct, the move method was not. Note that extensive discussion still exists at Talk:Zyman_Institute_of_Brand_Science.  Fourohfour 14:19, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * As the nominator notes, there are many such units in many universities. What makes this one notable ? The article doesn't say. Delete. WMMartin 18:20, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
