- Comment OK. I want to highlight the sources that the sources #2, #3, #9, and #11 are self-published by the company and fail WP:GNG. The other sources only have about three sentences describing the site: do they pass WP:SIGCOV? See WP:WEBCRIT, which states that
a brief summary of the nature of the content or the publication of Internet addresses and site
is trivial coverage, and WP:SIGCOV, which states that"Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content.
Note that there are 5 sources given that don't fail the independent or reliable metrics, or obviously don't fail the significant coverage part. From UnnamedUser (open talk page) 19:18, 13 November 2019 (UTC) Edit: From UnnamedUser (open talk page) 23:21, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
