Doesn't appear notable, creator says on their talk page "his particular company is relatively new, working at small scale, and hence doen't have much external coverage. However, this doesn't prove that the page in question is any sort of advertisement for a company. It has been posted just to show that portfolio hosting is also emerging as one of the advertizing media for individuals and small businesses." Dougweller (talk) 18:09, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I'm not sure the editor I referred to above, Engrkrishan (talk · contribs) is the same as the article's creator, although both are new so there may be some innocent confusion here. Dougweller (talk) 18:13, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, refs do not establish notability. Hairhorn (talk) 18:13, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete until such time as somebody starts handing out gold medals for being the 79,085th most popular website in the UK. Seriously though, there is no sign of significant coverage in reliable sources here. I might as well claim notability on the grounds that I am in the phone directory. --DanielRigal (talk) 19:50, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Advertisement (Such portfolio hosting company also play significant role in helping aspiring models) for a business that's so non-notable that the article tries to argue notability in its text. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 14:24, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I dont understand why this was not speedied at G11 - purely promotional. Mark^Dask 16:25, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I have a record of inclusionism for model-related articles. This one does not make the grade. All of the so-called references are self-created, press releases, or otherwise unreliable. Sometimes it snows in the UK in March. Delete. Bearian (talk) 23:30, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
