[edit] Genworth

  • Delete. This article is part meaningless gibberish and part vanity. I didn't realize it was possible to write a page this badly. There's not even a pretence of it not being vanity: note the "our companies" bit. --Blackcap | talk 19:17, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
They didn't write the page, they copied and pasted it from various bits of the Genworth website, such as here, which accounts for the execrable formatting. It's copyvio, but is it worth flagging it as such or just letting the VfD run? Delete. Tonywalton  | Talk 19:41, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
      • I didn't realize that. That explains the lack of punctuation. As for the copyvio, it's such a miserable article that the VfD ought to run anyway, but it's good that you pointed it out. --Blackcap | talk 20:20, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete nn co., reads as advert. Alf 20:28, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete as advert. Don't list as copyvio. A 5 day VFD run should draw enough editors to clean it up if it's possible to write a valid article about this company. - Mgm|(talk) 21:30, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge anything salvageable to Genworth Financial, delete copyvioish crud, and redirect to Genworth Financial. Alba 22:34, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete ad/spam. --Etacar11 03:25, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
