Zen Internet

Looks like advertizing to me --Robert Harrison^{talk contrib} 03:54, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

• Comment, Considering another well known UK Internet Service Provider called PlusNet has a Wiki entry, and nobody seems to have raised objection to that, I thought a small article for Zen Internet (who are of comparable size) would do no harm. This article is in no way attempting to be advertising, just informative. Though some of the sub sections could maybe do with being re-worded to take away the advertising feel of the article -- Larkymarky 04:30, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete BLATANT advertising and self-congratulation. This is a sales brochure. Changing to Abstain after rework. Still a bit of an ad (logo size for example). Deiz 04:44, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. TheRingess 04:52, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
• keep as per PlusNet. Have tried to tone it down to make it less of an advert. Jcuk 08:25, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, only major corporations are encyclopedic. -- Kjkolb 12:55, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, with the above view point, is PlusNet a "major corporation" ? My interpretation of a "major corporation" are organisations like Google and Microsoft. Zen is of a much smaller variety but has been trading for a over a decade which presents a core reason for it to be "encyclopedic" (Larkymarky 13:15, 16 January 2006 (UTC))
  • Comment, I would say that PlusNet is not a major corporation and would vote delete if it were nominated. But the inclusion standards are my own and have no basis in policy as far as I know (although WP:CORP gives some guidlines). By the way, you don't have to restate your position when you respond to a vote or comment. Bolding "keep" or "delete" is considered a vote and each user only gets one vote. -- Kjkolb 18:12, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Keep Not too bad now --kingboyk 21:25, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, possible advert. Incognito 04:44, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
