We cannot accept articles that are little more than definitions of words or abbreviations as entries. A good article should begin with a good definition, but expand on the subject. You might try creating a definition for this instead at Wiktionary, which is a dictionary. Please only do so if it meets that sister project's criteria for inclusion. These require among others, attestation for the word or phrase, as verified through clear widespread use, or its use in permanently recorded media, conveying meaning, in at least three independent instances spanning at least a year. |  |
Comment: Sorry, but this is not a viable encyclopaedia article. You may summarise the salient points (very selectively, and in appropriate style and format) and merge into Sales. DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:44, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
