The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to JT Tran. The two first "keep" opinions advocate a merger, three other people recommend deletion as non-notable, and I'm discounting Josh769's opinion as it does not appear to offer any argument. The other opinions can be reconciled with a "redirect", this way anything that's worth retaining can be merged from the history, editorial consensus permitting.  Sandstein  18:00, 2 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of a page which appears to have little notability and appears to be have been created by sockpuppets to promote the company. Information on the company - which offers 'pick-up artist' tactics - seems to be based on promotional material.

Not only is the topic seemingly non-notable, but it also appears to exist only because of multiple editors (or sockpuppets) with obvious conflict of interest and should be deleted as per WP:SOAP

I am also nominating the following related page due its connection with the topic of this AfD and lack of notability, along with some being written in large part by some of the same group of editors/sockpuppets involved with this article

  • Keep - But cut way the hell back and merge the two articles. Yeah, it's had enough coverage to technically merit notability (no accounting for taste). Add his name to the fifteen-bazillion name list of guys that have sure fire, can't miss, set in stone rules for dominating the opposite sex. - Richfife (talk) 20:03, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I cut back the main article significantly. I need to take a breather before looking at JT Tran. This is disturbing stuff. - Richfife (talk) 04:50, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - I've undone the redirect at JT Tran. It's not appropriate to essentially remove the article while it is under an AFD discussion. I agree the article itself is dreadful, but the content, especially the sources, should be there to assist editors in reviewing for the deletion discussion. -- Whpq (talk) 13:50, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
