This article about a website appears to be non-notable in reliable sources to indicate significant coverage. I did, however, find a fairly reliable source, see here but that's not enough; most other sources are self-published. TBrandley ^{(what's up)} 20:38, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The sources cited in the article include the TNooz one you mentioned and Techcrunch. The only other source is the homepage where the 150 websites number comes from. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ilanacal (talk • contribs) 20:43, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I think speedy deletion is appropriate, and I've nominated it as such. Drmies (talk) 20:48, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't think so, in this case. The criteria you provided states it does not make an assertion of importance. Although it may be non-notable, it does actually so continuing this debate seems appropriate. TBrandley ^{(what's up)} 20:50, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - I don't see any credible claim of importance. You are free to remove the template, of course--or you can see what the next available admin thinks. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 21:04, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    - After reviewing the guidelines I edited the article to show importance.Ilanacal
Delete, for now. The sources exist, but they seem merely to announce the creation of a new company. Whether the company will become notable, or sink without a trace, has yet to be determined. Let's check back in a year and see if any articles have been written other than those that acknowledge the beginning of the company. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 21:08, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I speedied and closed here, but have restored and reopened by request of the nominator. I speedied because I could, like Drmies, see no credible assertion of significance. I still can't in 10 pages of ghits. Peridon (talk) 21:27, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, for now this article is simply WP:SPAM and promotional. Per FisherQueen, maybe the company will become notable in six months to a year. - ʈucoxn\^talk 05:38, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
