  • Keep - contributors here should take note of the nomination, which asserts that the subject is not notable. I disagree in this instance, but statements that support deletion on the basis that this is a "non-notable, promotional article" are unlikely to be taken seriously. For one, articles need not be notable, but they should be about a notable subject. It might sound like an academic distinction but WP:BEFORE is very clear; there are steps A, B, and C before nomination for deletion at D. The question here is whether the subject is notable, not whether or not the article does a good or bad job of presenting the subject. Because bad writing is fixable. Second, the article being promotional (in an encyclopedia that aims not to promote things) is an example of bad writing. And again, bad writing is fixable. What I don't see is any kind of argument as to why the sources outlined above don't establish notability... so unless someone wants to contribute more than flippant non-policy opinion, there hasn't been a single substantive argument for deletion yet.

  • Keep per the sources and Stalwart111's explanation. BuySomeApples (talk) 10:33, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per others, easily enough sources to pass WP:GNG. NemesisAT (talk) 22:40, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
