Delete. Article reads like an advertisement. Google search showed no references in first several pages to the company, except from the company's own website.-- Syrthiss 16:30, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Why delete? We are in the process of trying to eliminate the the "advertisement" sounding reading from the article as well to comply with Wikipedia's rules. In fact we have already rewritten much of our original article in an attempt to provide for information about the company AEI and not necessarily its services.

- Furthormore... in response to "Google search showed no references in first serveral pages..." I present to everyone the following Google Search: http://www.google.com/search?q=%22aei+web+design%22&hl=en&lr=&rls=GGLG,GGLG:2005-48,GGLG:en&start=0&sa=N. We show up on numerous websites as their creators as well as third party websites. 68.184.147.173 16:41, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually, I do appreciate that you have been trying to improve the article. However, Wikipedia has guidelines as to what notable companies are. Without the supporting outside sources, the company isn't notable enough to be included. Can you provide any sources that google may have missed? --Syrthiss 16:43, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Ahh, now that is at least a more helpful response beyond the, "this article sounds like an ad" comments. In response to your question, No, at this point in time, AEI Web Design does not have any online, third-party reviews that we are aware of. We do have radio commercials running on FM stations in Georgia and we have sat down with Adroit Publications in the past and been interviewed by them about our services. In light of this though and after having read the Wikipedia guidelines for what noteable companies (are), we agree that we do not meet them fully and understand if the motion to delete our article is upheld.
