:The title seems misleading. It should be renamed to [[Limeroad]] or [[LimeRoad]] (The choice of capital R in between is deliberate here going by some articles and .com only suggests its an e-commerce website). Also the "Partnerships,"Online Traffic" and " Awards and Recognition" parts of the article are unsalvageable. It seems to be a stub after all these editing but the company seems to pass the notability test as per the verifiable sources. '''[[user:Vivek7de|<
*'''Delete''' per [[WP:TNT]] -- unsalvageable even if the company is notable. Check out this contribution [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Limeroad.com&type=revision&diff=744117690&oldid=743579774 diff], which restored 3500 worth of promo content, while removing the AfD template. No point to keep this garbage in article history. No prejudice to recreation as [[LimeRoad]] if notability can be proven and better RS exist (which is not likely per the current state of things). But maybe the company will become more notable in the future, who knows? [[User:K.e.coffman|K.e.coffman]] ([[User talk:K.e.coffman|talk]]) 05:59, 14 October 2016 (UTC)

*'''Comment''' -- the "sanitised version" is equally unconvincing. [[User:K.e.coffman|K.e.coffman]] ([[User talk:K.e.coffman|talk]]) 06:03, 16 October 2016 (UTC)
*'''Delete''' to be sanitized or not to be, that is the question: whether 'tis nobler to accept one version over the other; to suffer the slings and arrows of sources that are only PR, repackaged PR, company announcements, company sourced interviews, mundane financial information - Or to take arms against a sea of promotion and say, Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion [[WP:PROMO]]. Alas, to be lacking in GNG and CORPDEPTH is the true state of each version. [[User:Steve Quinn|Steve Quinn]] ([[User talk:Steve Quinn|talk]]) 06:39, 16 October 2016 (UTC)
*'''Comment''' -- If this article does get deleted then I also suggest putting up [[Voonik]] for deletion as it has the same "sea of promotion" in it. '''[[user:Vivek7de|<
**Looks pretty promotional, do a [[WP:BEFORE]] and if you can't find stuff that convinces you then by all means put it up for deletion, you don't have to wait on this AFD - [[User:David Gerard|David Gerard]] ([[User talk:David Gerard|talk]]) 19:45, 16 October 2016 (UTC)
*'''Delete''' I'm not really convinced that it meets NCORP and add to that the promo pressure, I go with a delete. The sources are also not very convincing. For example, [http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/small-biz/startups/fashion-curation-apps-like-limeroad-withme-voonik-are-carving-a-business-out-of-recommending-what-to-wear/articleshow/52352645.cms ET] has a very brief coverage (~150 words) out of which 100 words are quotes by the founder and investor. [http://www.hindustantimes.com/business/limeroad-to-redemption-why-e-com-troubles-make-suchi-mukherjee-happy/story-sAUju0EJoWSvhCif0JAnuN.html HT] is an interview of the founder which is not useful per [[WP:CORPIND]]. [http://www.business-standard.com/article/news-ani/indian-fashion-scrapbooking-site-limeroad-raises-30-million-dollar-series-c-115033100253_1.html Business Standard] is a vert brief coverage about funding. [http://www.livemint.com/Companies/mvuL9EUPb0SrAcpKbc8L4L/Fashion-etailer-Limeroad-enters-menswear-segment.html LiveMint] is probably the only source which is somewhat better but not enough. The company has been trying to promote itself but it doesn't seem to have received enough secondary attention.--[[User:Lemongirl942|Lemongirl942]] ([[User talk:Lemongirl942|talk]]) 14:15, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
