Webmarketer

Declined PROD; Wikipedia is not a dictionary. KurtRaschke (talk) 03:08, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, dictionary like content. It's not a dictionary. Marlith (Talk) 04:09, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep it, more time is necessary , it is no longer a dictionary definition. It is greatly improved with meritorical and reliable/sourced content. This article has only 5 days now.

Weak Keep The article is expanded beyond a dictionary definition at this point. The term seems to be in widespread usage as well based on a google search. I am not positive that it should remain, as it seems to be a neologism, but the widespread usage pushes me to keep the article. Theseeker4 (talk) 15:03, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect to Internet marketing, where the concept is already covered in more detail. Rklear (talk) 15:12, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
~~Keep~~ Delete – See Below The author does make a good point here. The article was created at 22:48 and proposed for deletion at 22:51 than AFD a few days later. Now that is efficiency. However, on to why we should keep. First, there is enough media coverage, as provided by Google News and shown here [1]] to establish that the term is Notable enough to meet the inclusion guidelines. Likewise, there is enough scholarly work, as shown by Google Scholar, and provided here [2] that the article can be expanded upon. May it need a rewrite, yes! However, that is not a condition for deletion. Thanks ShoesssS ^Talk 15:13, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Gnews search you cited was for "Web marketer". An equivalent search for "webmarketer", the neologism that is the heart of this article, turns up exactly 7 hits. And, to reiterate, Web marketing already redirects to Internet marketing. I don't see what is gained by a redundant article. Rklear (talk) 17:15, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Thanks for pointing out the redirect. I totaly overlooked it. Changed opinion to delete per Rklear argument. ShoesssS ^Talk 20:20, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Zeal to remove buzzwords, buzzword-wannabes, and marketing gibberish from Wikipedia is no vice. The instant article adds nothing that could not be added to our already existing article on internet marketing. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 15:55, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Even the reference used for the definition states "an alternate term for Internet marketer". --Jack-A-Roe (talk) 01:03, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
