Self-promotion for seemingly average web design firm, one of User:Webyourbusiness's four contributions (another one of which is self-promotion for NOD32USA, which sells software for Web Your Business; and another adding a link to yet another Web Your Business website to the external links of Loveland, Colorado). Seems like a pretty clear violation of "Please do not create an article to promote yourself, a website, a product, or a business (see Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not)." on the 'create an article' page.

- Delete. Looks like a self-promo. --Sillydragon 23:45, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Weak delete for vanity/advertising. Lots of Google hits though for the title of this article (9k+). Maybe worth a keep if somebody can clean it up soon, possibly add a portfolio to the article. --Idont Havaname 02:22, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- FWIW all the sites listed at http://www.webyourbusiness.com/v6/portfolio.shtml are small, local Fort Collins-area businesses [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], and [7]. WYB seems to try to adhere to wc3 standards, doesn't use Flash, creates nice, straight-forward sites, seems to provide a valuable service for local businesses, and "yeah small business", but being a noble concern is different from being a notable concern.
