The result was delete. WP:SNOW, and G11 as this is clearly intended to promote "Cloud Network Bank". The Bushranger _{One ping only} 23:06, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Network banking

Reads like an essay, no sources, no evidence anyone actually uses this term. Original PROD reason was: "As written now, this is unsourced and doesn't even make sense. My guess is that whatever concept this author was going for is already covered in another article. Unless sources can be provided to show that this is a notable standalone concept, it should be deleted." Jackmcbarn (talk) 17:50, 12 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I was going to suggest redirection, but realized there probably isn't a good target. The article seems to be saying that many companies now use the internet for banking, or for transfer of funds. It's really saying nothing of consequence, it's unsourced, and I don't even think it's a relevant search term that needs redirecting. Qwyrxian (talk) 02:10, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: It looks to me like it's talking about human networking, not computer networking. Jackmcbarn (talk) 02:21, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It explicitly says "electronic" and "cloud system computing", so I'd guess computer networking. Ansh6 6 6 02:23, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I see that now. The first time I read it, I didn't. That furthers the point that it's too confusing. Jackmcbarn (talk) 02:33, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Qwyrxian. Doesn't make sense to me. Ansh6 6 6 02:23, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Worthless page. Its only category, Category:Cashless Emerging Economy should also be deleted, usually this should be taken to categories for discussion, but I think an exception can be made if this article is the only one in there. ~~Wagner (talk) 11:39, 13 August 2013 (UTC)~~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.254.51.110 (talk) [reply]

Four days after this gets deleted, the category can be speedily deleted under C1. Jackmcbarn (talk) 14:43, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Worthless title for an article and incomprehensible text. A look at the history is interesting as it seems to have been created by someone trying to promote something called the Cloud Network Bank. That might be a clue as to the intended topic, and cloud network banking seems to be a buzz-word at present - see eg this article in The Economist. If it is not adequately covered elsewhere in WP it probably ought to be. It is not quite the same thing as Online banking. But this article is not about it either. --AJHingston (talk) 12:30, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
