Blue Line Media

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Previously speedy deleted and then recreated. The article was then proded by another editor [1] and then deproded by an anon ip [2] without addressing the concern of, "No evidence of notability. The sources largely consist of pages barely mentioning Blue Line, not mentioning it, and promotional pages. The article is also promotional in tone, and perhaps qualifies for speedy deletion for that reason." My own research has been unable to turn up significant reliable source coverage, and has found mostly press releases, social media content, and passing mentions.

Delete. Article is about a commercial business (the company provides billboard, transit, mall, airport and other types of outdoor advertising) and makes no showing of significant effects on history, technology, or culture. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 15:15, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Article. Article is about a company that is one of the United States Government's largest vendors in providing social change advertising. See previous versions of articles for outreach for veterans, flu prevention and the 2010 Census.
