The result was merge to Luke Laird#Publishing. Consensus is that the article is not notable yet in itself, and is promotional. Merging positive information into host ariticle, and will create redirect (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 12:31, 27 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Non-notable company. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 21:56, 18 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Objection to Deletion

I am objecting to the proposed deletion of this page (Creative Nation) for being a "non-notable" company, as I have provided evidence that this company is a PARTNER of Universal Music Publishing Group, a division of NBC/Universal (i.e. a Fortune 500 Company). I have referenced press releases regarding this partnership, and will continue to reference more major media coverage, as future announcements about it's partnerships come about this year. Please advise if there is anything else I need to do in order to provide evidence of Creative Nation being a notable company, thank you kindly

'Keep or Merge since it's owned by an apparently notable songwriter, and I am seeing two third party references covering it. PCHS-NJROTC ^(Messages) 23:14, 18 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Switching to Merge or delete due to only slight notability and since Wikipedia is not a medium for advertising, and it appears that the company in question seems to think that's what we are, based on comments made below by IP editor. PCHS-NJROTC ^(Messages) 13:12, 24 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Notability is not inherited and two sources hardly constitutes a significant coverage. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 02:58, 19 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Luke Laird, as notable co-owner. --Colapeninsula (talk) 14:47, 19 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge—Two sources has always been my threshold (multiple meaning "more than one" in my personal dictionary), so this should barely meet WP:N guidelines. At the same time, I wouldn't object to a merge since the notability is borderline and a suitable target has been identified. Livit⇑^Eh?/_What? 01:23, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I've made 9 in-line citations to the Creative Nation wiki page, to improve it accordingly. There will be numerous press releases regarding this company's partnerships in the next 6 months, and I ask that it not be merged to Luke Laird who is one of Nashville's most successful songwriters, and will have plenty of his own news for his wiki page.

Redirect to Laird. Sources provided mostly do not mention Creative Nation and ones that do only mention it, no significant coverage. Most sources do not verify claims made. (I removed the shop links). duffbeerforme (talk) 07:51, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I need to speak (through email or on phone) to whomever makes the final decision about this. I have a responsibility to make sure this page remains as a company page, not a merged or redirected page. Please email me at the address attached to my account or provide an email address for me to contact (24.43.24.205 (talk) 16:03, 23 April 2012 (UTC))[reply]

Let's change that to Speedy Delete, Unambiguous advertising or promotion. duffbeerforme (talk) 22:01, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have to

I apologize for mis-stating or mis-representing the intentions of this wiki entry. The creation of the Creative Nation wiki page is in no way an attempt to advertise or promote the company. Creative Nation is not a company that is selling a product, nor is it a company promoting a service. Rather, it is a private, US music publishing company, that represents a group of distinguished songwriters and musicians, and does not accept unsolicited requests. With the recent announcement of a partnership with Universal Music Publishing Group a separate wiki entry seems necessary. I ask that any proposal to delete this entry be re-considered, and I'm happy to improve the page further, if that would make a difference. Thank you in advance for your consideration of this statement (Jpoindex (talk) 18:46, 24 April 2012 (UTC))[reply]

I have made further improvements to the Creative Nation page to eliminate any notion that it is a promotion or advertisement (Jpoindex (talk) 22:33, 24 April 2012 (UTC))[reply]
