Company that sells chewing gum that will allegedly enlarge your breasts. (Per previous versions of article, they have other gums which will do other things for you.) Only sources listed are a Yahoo copy of a PRWeb release, and their own site. No indication it meets WP:CORP. -- Fan-1967 03:11, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I call spam. Speedy Delete accordingly.  --Dennisthe2 03:26, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep.. They clearly sell herbal chewing gum and the topic should be left open. I agree that their needs to be more information added though. Sfiore76 03:59, 13 January 2007 (UTC) — Sfiore76 (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * That they sell gum is not a sufficient reason to keep them. Please elaborate. --Dennisthe2 04:46, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Gum. Herostratus 03:31, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I dunno, I have written several articles about breath mints. I guess the question is, is this a notable gum. I bet we have an article on Wrigley's Gum (and if not we should). So how does a gum show notability? I don't know, I'm just asking. We don't have WP:GUM to look to. I find the claim that a gum gives you bigger breasts to be somewhat different, I don't know if that makes it notable or not. What happens if a man chews it? Herostratus 05:03, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment see Gynecomastia. Edison 23:57, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment, the WP:GUM seems a bit of a red herring, this article is specifically written about the corporate entity; not the product. If they throw up a missive on the ever-fabulous Zoft Penile Enhancement Gum, then let's shift topic.  Kuru  talk  00:36, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * What happens if a couple orders both gums, but chew the wrong ones? If he ends up with bigger breasts, what will happen to her? Fan-1967 00:39, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Maybe they look for a gum that reduces those particular parts? As for what that gum would do to her... erm, never mind. =O.o= --Dennisthe2 01:40, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - the article appears to fail WP:ADVERT Orderinchaos78 03:45, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - Not an advert, the article is neutral and cites a source. John Reaves 04:28, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Google search changed my mind. Too many "pay for press" sites. John Reaves 04:43, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete How about actually being in a store as a criteria for gum notability? Or at least major websites. Citicat 05:08, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Corollary I'd say said gum'd have to be available in stores nation- or continent- or worldwide in order for it to be notable. I don't think I've seen Zoft around my parts. --Ouro 16:10, 13 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete. Only press releases on Google News. --Dhartung | Talk 05:10, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Gum.  I mean, Spam.  -- Dmz5  *Edits**Talk* 05:30, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. I think we need an independent test to see if this gum works. I nominate Herostratus. .V. (talk) 14:43, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * They also sell gum that claims to, uh, help men. Fan-1967 15:23, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * If that's the case, why are we deleting this article? .V. (talk) 15:40, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I think the references they used are not correct but I still do not see why this topic should be deleted. I found their official website http://www.zoft.com and it shows they mainly manufacture custom herbal gum products for other companies under a "private label." Their site also says they make herbal chewing gum and have their own "house brands" including breast gum, hoodia gum, stress gum, anti-aging gum, virility gum and teeth whitening gum. I think if the references were changed accordingly the topic should be kept. Sfiore76 18:30, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * It appears you have not read Notability (companies and corporations), because you have offered nothing to suggest this company meets the standards there. Fan-1967 18:34, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I would offer to try the male-enhancement version for research purposes, but... how to put this... I'm already... I mean, if it worked at all, I'd have to have my pants custom tailored, if you see my meaning... Herostratus 03:44, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Yet another AfD discussion revealed to be a thin facade for comparisons of penis size. &mdash; coe l acan t a lk  &mdash; 20:30, 14 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete, non-notable company, although I would like to have larger breasts. J I P  | Talk 15:32, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, truly nn corp. Only ref is the company's 'testimonial' page and a press release - which is patently not a 'source'.   Kuru  talk  19:45, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as Complete bollocks (but does the gum make them larger????)Edison 23:53, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per John Reaves. Just spam. &mdash; coe l acan t a lk  &mdash; 05:03, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete an "informercial"-ish product thats only claim to fame is an idiotic claim. Let this be another test case for what doesn't meet the notability standard. --MarsRover 20:17, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - fails WP:V and WP:RS, as searches turn up only press releases, and no independent coverage. -- Whpq 17:27, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
 * DeleteFails primary notability criteria, WP:CORP and any other basis I can think.Obina 00:00, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment And the right link is here
 * Web server says 404 - ergo, no, it's not right there. --Dennisthe2 04:27, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Link works for me, though I don't see its relevance. Fan-1967 04:29, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
