Unfortunately, the way the article was worded made it sound like an advertisement for the company to promote it, and as this is an encyclopaedia with a neutral point of view, advertisements are deleted. The company also fails to meet our notability guidelines, specifically those for companies, as it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopaedia. I hope that explains. Regards, mattbr 20:01, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
