Non-notable product lacking GHits and GNEWS of substance. ttonyb (talk) 15:49, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Contesting Deletion I would argue that this supplement is notable because of it's novelty. The product is one of the only non-prescription 'nootropic' drugs legally available on the UK market. (I can get the ingredients up if you think that's appropriate, but I thought that might be a CoI, I wanted to make an informational page about the product without it being a CoI, in other words, I'm trying not to make this into an advert or product placement or anything of the sort, any suggestions to reinforce that would be appreciated). I also think it is a matter of interest when products are aimed at the young. Admittedly it does not have many GHits, but I predict that it soon will. If this means it is worth deleting and recreating when this is the case then I understand, but to me that seems a waste of energy. Charlesmacnamara (talk) 18:17, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Novelty cannot establish WP:Notability. Kevin (talk) 04:14, 12 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy delete. This page currently exists only to promote a product, and would require a top to bottom rewrite to become an encyclopedia article rather than an advertisement. So tagging: a brand of supplement sold in the UK, aimed specifically at student athletes. It is a neural and cognitive support supplement, marketed as a neural accelerator. It is notable due to its novelty, acting as one of the only legal non-prescription nootropic drugs in the UK market. This represents a large change in government legislation, allowing certain previously banned substances to enter the marketplace as a result of clinical trials showing their efficacy and benefits. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 14:44, 12 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
