The result was speedy delete per WP:CSD#G7: the author blanked the page with edit summary "I apologize for not understanding the rules before posting here. I wish you all a great day." (non-admin closure) — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 19:11, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No objective evidence of notability, and more or less spam. The product is made by RJV Creations; unsurprisingly, the article is by single-purpose account User:Rjvcreations. - Biruitorul Talk 23:14, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
1. The project/product in itself is notable; it is a new and innovative PHP framework; the article is objective and no advertising "elevator-pitch" lines were inserted at any point. 2. The product is made by RJV Creations Corp; the article is written by an user with the same name; would it have been less of an issue if 10 people with different accounts would have been paid to write and improve this article? Is the name of the author relevant to sustain claims of SPAM? I think not. 3. Wikipedia is no place for advertising. The product itself is the first result in Google Search for the keyword "octoms". I (we) have no intention of using this forum to attract visibility/users/attention. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rjvcreations (talk • contribs) 09:14, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- To Rjvcreations: Wikipedia has strict policies on self-promotion and advertising, which you can find at WP:COI and WP:UN. Unfortunately, your edits of the article violate those policies. To answer your question, whether 10 people have been paid to improve this article, or you have been paid to approve this article, makes no difference and is equally in violation of Wikipedia policies.
- You also need to read this to find out what notability means on Wikipedia; the term has a specific meaning. To show that the subject is notable you need to find references to OctoMS in sources such as computer magazines, computer news websites (the sort that employ writers and editors), scientific papers, or books. If you can find references, we will not delete the article. --Colapeninsula (talk) 10:49, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
