The more I look at this the more to seems to be an article promoting a particular unit. I see it was recently created from WP:AFC. The history shows that it was accepted pending a redirect's removal. I have edited it to clear the AfC banners. If reviewing it I would have viewed it as an advert and pushed it back to the creating editor. Now it is in the main namespace I am doing the same thing by nominating it for deletion.

I have sample checked the references. Those I checked do nothing to dispel my feeling that this is an advert. Others may wish to check the remainder. Fiddle Faddle 09:04, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: trout Self-trout I've now removed a chunk of what I read to be blatant advertising I didn't catch when initially commenting that I would approve the AfC. samtar (msg) 10:29, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Thank you Samtar for doing that. Now I can see the wood from the trees I see PR material in the references and nothing that shows significant coverage which is independent of the topic and is in WP:RS. I can now no longer see an advert, but I can see something that fails to pass WP:GNG Fiddle Faddle 10:54, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I would love to believe it could be improved and made semi-notable. Unfortunately a quick google of the term has so far only returned semi-decent sources, most of which are pretty promotional. In terms of my !vote here, I'd have to concede and admit I let a bad article through. samtar (msg) 11:03, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
