The result was Delete. As has been noted, this article reads like a brochure. I'd be less inclined to delete it if there was a single actual reliable source, but there aren't any. EVula // talk // ☯ // 02:53, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Connected Home Solutions

Connected Home Solutions (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

This page has been around for some time now. It has several times been tagged as ADVERT or IMPORTANCE but those were removed by anonomous users. The basis for deletion is this is a non notable specific product. All the google hits that describe this specific name are from Motorola themselves thus not independent per WP:RS. The term is used to sell similar products, but it is not a notable internet word needing an article that is not an advert for Motorola. Recently three sub pages were created (perhaps to genereate more google hits?) Anyway these

IP Video Solutions (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Home Mobility Solutions (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Wireline Access Solutions (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

are also proposed to delete with this one since they are just redirects. Leaving them as redirect (or putting all 4 to motorola) does not seem right as it might still meet a goal of google hits and advertising. Obina 22:25, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

• Delete Fails to establish notability, no references. eligatalk 03:08, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
• Keep. The company has a lot of history under its previous names. I would keep the article, in the same way that other defunct but notable companies such as Pennsylvania Railroad are kept. --216.99.63.5 03:54, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Comment There are pages for each of the two parent companies Jerrold Electronics and General Instrument just like the railroad you mention (though sadly these also have no references). And Motorola has a page. What would help is evidence of notability per WP:RS for these 4 pages. Obina 11:38, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

• Delete Basically a sales brochure. Obviously, the parent companies are substantial concerns and are unlikely to fail any notability criterion.--Osidge 13:00, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
