The result was   delete. no reason for keeping; we have a way of doing school projects, and it consists of assistance in first finding notable subjects. It is t onobody's benefit to permit articles that do not meet our requirements when there are so many genuine gaps in coverage.  DGG ( talk ) 16:18, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

Prod removed by author with following comments: ''This is a school project could you please wait a week or two before you delete it. I am not finnished and it still needs to be graded. Pinkprincess14 (talk) 00:43, 16 October 2009 (UTC) Original Prod reasoning: Non-notable company. Claims of notability (Hartford Advocate and Hartford Magazine awards) cannot be verified, and would not likely meet notability standards anyway.'' I can not find any reliable sources that indicate this is a notable company.  GB fan  talk 00:51, 16 October 2009 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Delete per original prod reasoning. I have contacted the author and pointed out the guidelines for school projects, including the fact that even as a school project, the article still needs to meet inclusion criteria.  WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 11:30, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Can't find any indication of notability. Google only reveals directory and company profile listings.  DB 103245 talk 17:00, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment. I located two features in the Hartford Courant, along with 20-odd brief mentions in "where to buy cheap back-to-school clothes" stories and one article about a customer performing CPR on a lady there once. I added them as citations in the article, for what that's worth, which isn't really a lot. Wasn't able to verify Hartford Advocate, Hartford Magazine, or Rare Reminder.  Of those three, Hartford Magazine might make it as a reliable source, but the other two are local free entertainment/shopper rags, so no.  I guess I added the citations less in an attempt to establish notability and more in the hopes that the author will at least see a little bit of the process before the article goes away.
