Speedy deletion of GROW model

[edit]

A tag has been placed on GROW model, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Arbiteroftruth (talk) 15:00, 19 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bob, the problem is that there is no evidence presented that this subject is at all notable. Links to guys who use it in their work is not evidence of notability, and indeed is a violation of our rules on external links and spamming. Has this topic been written up in reputable magazines dealing with the field? Has it been examined by peer-reviewed scientific journals? Notability is not an option; neither is verifiability, from impartial, reliable third-party sources. --Orange Mike | Talk 13:05, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe that's part of the problem: most of what's being done in the name of this subject is untested and ad hoc; if we don't have some sort of verifiable sources, it's hard to make a case for writing it up in an encyclopedia. --Orange Mike | Talk 18:28, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
