  • Delete, nn notable, spam, vanity, advertising.--Ávril ʃáη 00:18, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete A "spam-fighting" company pushing their spam. What a poetic ending if this article were deleted with scarcely a thought, just like so many spam messages. --Xrblsnggt 02:14, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Hangon Please tell me how this article differs from the acceptable description of the other companies mentioned here: Anti-spam appliances --Vanquish Labs 21:02, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
    • In some ways, it doesn't. Those articles are unsourced, too. If you wish to write about yourself or your company, always write using only published works sourced entirely independently of you and your company as your reference material, and cite those sources from your very first edit. This implicitly satisfies our WP:CORP criteria for inclusion. You have not done that, here. If you cannot do that, do not create an article. Wikipedia is not the Yellow Pages. That's Yellowikis' job.

    • Comment Vanquish makes a very good point. They should all be deleted. "Wikipedia is not an advertising service". That means if your company does not follow these guidelines:WP:CORP It is fair game for deletion. --Xrblsnggt 04:45, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Pure WP:VSCA. How ironic that a company "best known for antispam technology" is spamming Wikipedia. I don't think I'll be needing their services. --Wine Guy Talk 06:02, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - per nom. Massmato 16:51, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as advertising, etc. (per above, except the parts about "spamming" [because it's only this one article, right?]). Ardric47 23:58, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
