* Sport industry (currently a sub-stub)

Wagerweb is company that employs over 100 Employes and should be respected as a company

Great! I will respect it as a company. However, if you are an employee, it isn't appropriate for your to create an article about your own company. If you aren't, feel free to add two or three reliable sources- like newspaper and magazine articles- confirming the information in this article and verifying that the company meets Wikipedia's notability criteria. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 19:48, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that any of the sources you just added would count as reliable sources. You need independent sources, not PR releases. I couldn't review the last one; my firewall at work blocks forums- in general, though, a forum post wouldn't be a reliable source, either. Just post the newspaper articles about this important company instead; if it's as important as you say, there should be lots of them, so just choose the best three. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 20:14, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok looking for links but both of the ones I provided talk about the companies record and standing, and I am not an employee just a satisfied customer —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gabest2 (talk • contribs) 20:23, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So u are just deleting it? what info do you want? I dont see how it is right for a company like tyson food s to have a company information page and wagerweb cannot what is the difference? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gabest2 (talk • contribs) 20:34, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There needs to be something about how it has scammed/robbed/defrauded people in the past. This is a major issue amongst the online gaming community. http://www.sportsbookreview.com/NewsWire/3968/wagerweb-selectively-enforcing-rule-correlated-parlays.aspx http://www.sportsbookreview.com/NewsWire/3975/wagerweb-correlated-parlay-confiscation-update.aspx These are links to a prominent player advocacy site. I'm not a skilled wiki editor. Perhaps someone could add in a section about complaints, and annotate it. I'm too noob. 88.196.102.47 (talk) 18:03, 2 February 2011 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.196.102.47 (talk) 18:02, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Notability?

There are currently two references. One is a routine directory listing in an offshore gambling website. That's not significant coverage. The second is a company press release. That's not independent coverage. What is required are references to several reliable sources independent of Wagerweb that provide significant coverage of Wagerweb.
