Declined 7 times as an advertisement. enough is enough. From the comments at the Draft [age, the contributor seems still to confuse existence with notability, and self-serving interviews with 3rd party sources. DGG ( talk ) 08:50, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
- Article has been through substantial revisions, in response to direction provided by reviewers and Wikipedia guidelines. Am attempting to address reviewer's comments, still awaiting a response on article's talk page. [1]162.245.21.61 (talk) 01:26, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. This draft is not improving, the "best sources" discussed on the draft's talk page, being interviews and "sound bite" passing mentions, fall well short of being in-depth coverage of the subject. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 19:40, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
- Delete as clear advertising alone. SwisterTwister talk 00:18, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
- Wikipedia's notability guideline[2]calls for "significant" coverage. There is no requirement for "substantial" or "in-depth" coverage:
- If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list.
- "Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material.
- The three references cited on the talk page represent only a portion of the sustained coverage that the subject has received. If there is still an ongoing debate over notability, that does not justify deleting this article. The notability guideline states:
- For articles of unclear notability, deletion should be a last resort.
- Reviewers have failed to identify specific language in the article that violates neutral point of view guideline[3]. The article:
- --Avoids stating opinions as facts.
- --Avoids stating seriously contested assertions as facts.
- --Avoids stating facts as opinions.
- --Employs nonjudgmental language that neither sympathizes with nor disparages its subject.
- Wikipedia editors are advised that "a differentiation should be made between spam articles and legitimate articles about commercial entities."[4]
