I speedied but then removed my own speedy because the hangon suggested involvement by N.E.R.D., and other indications.
I don't see any of those, but I would rather take the time, particularly since the user immediately removed the CSD tag after that comment. Easier to have one place for discussion though.
Possible COI given "Mikey Hall" and username "Mikeyhall88". Shadowjams (talk) 08:01, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This article is NOT to promote a business or person. It is a credible, legitimate company worthy of encyclopedia recognition as the purpose of this article was to distinguish itself from other companies named LimeLight Events. LimeLight Events is Virginia Beach's biggest, most demanded entertainment company that has collaborated with top musical acts such as Vedette, The Influence and others. It's founders are long time friends with musical act NERD and they have collaborated with filmmaker Michael Hall
LimeLight Events has had collaborations with Virginia based musical groups NERD, Neptunes, Clipse, Missy Elliot, Timbaland, Vedette, and the Deloreans among many others. They host monthly events for other high profile venues around the area, such as nationally known The NorVa, The National (both notable enough for Rolling Stone magazine), and the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. LimeLight Events has also worked with filmmakers Michael Hall (who has worked for Disney, Universal and Lionsgate films and is a different person than the creator of the page) and Scott Hansen (over 100 music videos broadcast on MTV). LimeLight Events also donated a considerable anonymous sum to Wikipedia when it was begging for donations.....did shadowjams? Unsigned edit made by 08:12, February 12, 2010 User:Mikeyhall88
- It'd be hard to know about who donated if they're anonymous. In any case, the important criteria here is Reliable sources, which include major publications, whether online or in print, that indicate somehow that the subject is notable. Shadowjams (talk) 08:18, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete unless someone comes up with sources demonstrating notability. Saying that the people involved have "worked for Disney" (or whatever) goes nowhere. Hairhorn (talk) 13:47, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
