WP:CSD?

ZoomShops are the first automated retail stores in the world. Therefore, are worthy of being in Wikipedia. The article is not meant to be a promotional vehicle but to explain what is a ZoomShop. The article is factual and does not contain any promotional language. I request the article be given more time so it can be rewritten to Wikipedia standards.

I disagree about the promotional language, but I believe I have rectified that problem and have therefore declined the speedy deletion. You may want to make youreslf aware of our policies on neutral point of view and conflicts of interest. Beeblebrox (talk) 00:32, 23 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Notable, Too Specific, Brand Name?

I am having trouble figuring out why this is a page. It seems like it should be a subset of Automated Retail instead, and sometime some enterprising writer can expand that article to discuss the history of their development, the classes of devices (e.g. single-format dispensers like Redbox or even pop machines) and how they vary from other types of kiosks. I have another project for a while here, or I'd do it. Shoobe01 (talk) 18:34, 28 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You may notice the tag on the article indicating an active proposal to merge it with Zoom Systems, the parent company. You are more than welcome to participate in the discussion at Talk:Zoom Systems. So far nobody has replied to my post there made five days ago and I was thinking of going ahead and doing it per WP:SILENCE, but if you would rather merge it elsewhere we'll have to work it out I suppose.
