Venue networking[edit]

This concept is a promotional tool of ScreenScape Networks. They have blogged about the creation of the article here. I can find no uses of the term independently from ScreenScape, and no significant coverage of the concept in independent reliable sources. Fences&Windows 20:34, 15 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, article appears to be self-promotion/Advertising. nothing notabile or encyclopedic at all. Alan - talk 05:20, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Self-serving advertisement. Angryapathy (talk) 19:29, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Blatant spam. The Google News results linked at the top of the article are all either press releases from ScreenScape (who don't seem to realise that CamelCase has been a subject of ridicule for several years now, so seem to be just as incompetent in their marketing as the Wikimedia Foundation) or accidental juxtapositions of these two words. This would probably qualify for speedy deletion under WP:CSD#G11. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:27, 17 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete, coatrack spam, and the sort of thing no reasonable person should be expected to make sense of. The words just keep chasing their tails: ...a general concept in marketing based on the idea that different venues share similar audiences. Members of the network can benefit by sharing access to their respective audiences via shared media content displayed on digital screens. Venue Network members participate by creating, sharing and publicly displaying content transmitted over the Internet. The shared content is displayed on digital screens located in venues in order to entertain, inform, self-promote, cross-promote, and advertise to specific venue audiences. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 17:33, 18 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Do Not Delete, Although the concept of venue networking is new, and ScreenScape is the ONLY player currently in the marketplace, the article does not mention ScreenScape except for in the references section. To be fair, how many companies from Silicon Valley have coined new terms in reference to their products or brand without incurring scrutiny from Wiki-conservatives? This is an example of digital bullying.User:Mbdmerritt\Morgan Merritt —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mbdmerritt (talk • contribs) 18:56, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I note that your user name has a strong resemblance to the name of the marketing coordinator of ScreenScape. Please think about the damage to your reputation, and future employability, that can be done by your actions here. Do you want to gain a reputation for being a blatant, inept, spammer? This discussion may well become one of the first search engine results found for your name for the rest of your life. I certainly wouldn't want to employ anyone who can't tell the difference between defence against spam and bullying. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:26, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
