I accepted this article via the WP:AFC process. When I did so it was a borderline decision, and perhaps an unwise one. My hope was that the community would turn this into a substantive article. However, my view is that this has not taken place. I probably made an error in accepting it. Thus I am submitting it for discussion and potential deletion.

The article is an essay, albeit with referencing. However, the topic is, of itself, bland. "Deal Registration" is simply the ability of a sales channel member to say "I got here first and this possible sale is mine" and this concept does not become encyclopaedic whatever one writes about it. It might be here as a reason to promote Salesforce.com, but that is hardly likely.

It also contains WP:OR in that it draws conclusions of its own.

I do not view it to be likely that this can be turned into an article since the topic itself fails WP:GNG Fiddle Faddle 11:59, 18 October 2015 (UTC)

• Draft and userfy again if there's no better improvement although I have to say it would seem acceptable at first and with this said, there's no obvious need for urgent deletion and this can simply be worked at until set. SwisterTwister talk 05:48, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
