Non-notable essay (with email address for some reason); contested prod. Judging from the creator's edit summary as well as his/her other contributions, it appears that s/he doesn't quite understand what Wikipedia is all about. Erpert (let's talk about it) 20:48, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

And what's more, the only two hits in Google Books for the term give different lists of Cs, and this article is different again. Hut 8.5 21:48, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
:: comment: Dear Hut 8.5 I think google books has a few more if you change the title a bit. Here are a few more: [1]. Best wishes (Msrasnw (talk) 21:04, 7 June 2010 (UTC))[reply]
comment: moved to 7 c's of communication as this seems the more normal title. Seems quite a common list taught/mentioned in lots of business things. I can't find the originator of the list yet. Best wishes (Msrasnw (talk) 22:46, 6 June 2010 (UTC))[reply]
  • Delete Content-wise, this article seems to be an essay. Looking for significant coverage of this in reliable sources, I was unable to find any. I did a google search of the first source listed, A Complete Course in ISC Commerce, and was unable to find anything about the "7 C's" there. The second source listed does mention them, but briefly.

comment: Dear Jujutacular I think the brief mention in the first source is here: [2] (Msrasnw (talk) 21:01, 7 June 2010 (UTC))[reply]
  • Delete as unencyclopedic content, being an essay. Whether or not the topic is notable, the article would require a fundamental rewrite to become encyclopedic, which is grounds for deletion without prejudice against recreation. - DustFormsWords (talk) 03:03, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, appears to be just a poorly referenced original theory. See WP:OR, WP:SYNTH, WP:NOTHOWTO, etc. If this is in fact an existing theory, then as Jujutacular notes it's not a notable one.  Glenfarclas  (talk) 06:21, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Must Keep: This contains an important part of our syllabus and wiki or any other side doesnot proivide this. so i would strongly recommend it should be kept. (talk)

Comment: I think this :(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL) might be better than the one above for finding the sources. (Msrasnw (talk) 08:36, 7 June 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Keep: In my view a notable topic that has some problems with current version - that just need some work. Tagged for rescue. The earlier title did not produce as many results on the search as the current one. (adding effective to make 7 c's of effective communication seems to add more too). The orgin of this seems to be "Effective public relations: pathways to public favor" by Scott M. Cutlip, Allen H. Center published in 1952 by Prentice-Hall. It is now in its 10th edition or so.

AFD Tip: Familiarize yourself with WP:AADD. And next time, please don't use WP:USEFUL in your !votes. RussianReversal (talk) 22:06, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

So other authors are now referencing their 7 C's? If more than one notable source uses it, then it deserves its own article and should be kept. Dream Focus 23:03, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I have removed the essay style comments and left it just as a referenced factual statement of Cutlip and Center's work. (Msrasnw (talk) 18:03, 9 June 2010 (UTC))[reply]

That section would merge nicely into Effective Public Relations where the points are just listed. --Stormbay (talk) 23:41, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
