The four dimensions of distance

Essay on a relatively non-notable NEO (I figure maybe 100 GHits, it's hard to tell because the phrase pulls up a lot of stuff that doesn't actually relate to this article) discussion of one framework for evaulating paths of corporate expansion. It's possible that a signficant rewrite of this article, renamed, could be a useful encyclopedia article, but I'm not sure where I'd start, and the non-notability is still an issue.

Delete, appears to be an attempt to use Wikipedia for promotional purposes. --Ckatz^chat _spy 04:20, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Non-notable neologism, an essay of original synthesis, and likely stealth advertising meant to promote someone's non-notable book or consulting business: Expanding business in other countries is an important decision for corporations because it will influence the corporations’ success or failure in the future. However, to expand business, setting up a strategy is the most important part because it is a direction or a map for the corporation to follow. A good strategy forces the company to do more analysis and research, such as analyzing the four dimensions of distance: Cultural, Administrative, Geographic and Economic (CAGE). - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:16, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete reads like pure spam of someone's pet management theory, and mostly OR as the key points seem unsourced.--JohnBlackburne^words_deeds 22:10, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - WP:NEO and WP:OR certainly. - UtherSRG (talk) 04:33, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - this seems to be part of some sort of college project or other group activity. There are three other articles with very similar characteristics - see the Village Pump here. andy (talk) 07:46, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete - awful, but I think it could be fixed; however, on the other hand, it looks like too much work. Bearian (talk) 00:24, 22 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fairly clearly case of WP:NEO to me. --Darkwind (talk) 04:46, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
