Spam. The article promotes a product called EM, which apparently should be written EM(TM);[1] it is a line of microorganism-based composters and digesters. The article also promotes a store in Canada that sells EM. The generic information is already found at Effective microorganisms. This was one of a group of articles created last month about exporting agricultural products from Canada to Nepal, possibly as a school assignment. The others have been deleted; the author removed the PROD from this one. MelanieN (talk) 06:25, 9 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: WP:ARTSPAM, WP:NOTESSAY. A strangely narrowly scoped essay promoting a product and a Canadian company. Kolbasz (talk) 19:36, 13 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as oddly-targeted essay, per User:Kolbasz. Although there are citations, the effect is basically WP:OR, promoting a particular WP:POV. It doesn't belong here: we have (far better) articles on microbiology and agriculture. Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:17, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment As mentioned above, this is one of a cluster of recent essays about the trade in agricultural products between Nepal and Canada. I have started a list of such articles here. Anyone who finds others, please add them to the list. Thank you! --MelanieN (talk) 14:46, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
