Keep as article creator. Though coverage is somewhat sparse, I believe current coverage satisfies WP:GNG. This article is from VentureBeat, which is deemed a generally reliable source via WP:RSP. In addition to information from the company itself, this article also references a WSJ article and provides broader context on the industry and partners, so it appears to satisfy independent reporting and content. Does this article seem to satisfy guidelines? I previously through GigaOm would work, but I am no longer sure (which probably means that it would be worth mentioning on WP:RSN, given that it's a source used in a few hundred articles). Also, could a description of what's wrong with the multichannel coverage be provided? I think there might be problems with independent content, but the source is pretty good, the author is a consistent writer on the site, and the article appears under the general news section. Thanks!

In addition, I found a few additional sources by looking in Israeli news sources. I may have missed some significant coverage beyond what I've described above by doing so. I will see whether Israeli or Hebrew-language sources have additional information if the above doesn't suffice. Jlevi (talk) 01:15, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. WP:TOOSOON. Compass-EOS got some press-release type coverage, but the connection with Exaware looks like WP:OR with only passing mention, and almost nothing coming up on all the search links above. Re: GigaOm used # of times, I'll quote you: "As usual, the number of citations currently on wikipedia isn't a good indicator of reliability." Why would you think any differently here (rhetorical)? -- Yae4 (talk) 13:30, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I think you may be misreading my statement on GigaOm here. It is worth discussing because it may be overused. Jlevi (talk) 13:44, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
