No evidence of notabilty. Cites five sources: four are the company's own web site, one is a blank page. Maproom (talk) 07:23, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Have you seen this version? Philafrenzy (talk) 07:32, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Philafrenzy, for pointing that out. The article was once well-referenced, mainly to reliable sources pointing out that the business is a scam. But all the independent references have been removed, leaving the current worthless article. Maybe better to restore it to that version? Maproom (talk) 15:26, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Does not pass WP:GNG. Dreadful sourcing. Argument can be made for speedily deleting this. -- Scjessey (talk) 13:54, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Just restored the article to its original. That new version was certainly delete worthy, but fortunately it was only active for about 48hrs. I guess the nom didn't notice what happened but they knew at one time in the past. -- GreenC 21:22, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Right. I would like to withdraw my nomination, now that it's been reverted to a better-referenced state. Maproom (talk) 23:06, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Based on current version. Still needs more sources however. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:46, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Thanks to GreenC restoring it to the last good version, it once again passes WP:GNG. Edwardx (talk) 23:33, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, the refs don't support notability, there appears to have been a lot of edit warring over the article so I've looked at the latest and 'best' version. Szzuk (talk) 18:06, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
