Previously speedily deleted and still overtly promotional. There is very little written about this organisation once you take out press releases and passing mentions. Fails WP:CORP and WP:GNG Flat Out (talk) 05:14, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
- Delete little independent coverage, lack of significant coverage. Fails WP:ORG please see the section on "Depth of coverage" at WP:ORG. I decline the redirect to TTK Group, as not being a significant part of their business. This article purports to be about the company, but most of it, and most sources, are about its product "GetFriday". Either way it fails notability. Note that some of the citations in the article are to sources that are about the concept, not about GetFriday. Noted: Relax, don't do it: how to outsource your life from the Evening Standard has three short paragraphs about GetFriday. GetFriday was one of four virtual assistants reviewed in 2011 by PC World at Four Virtual Assistants Tackle Real-World Business Tasks. The BBC's Hire your own personal assistant has only a single mention. Others that I found had only brief mentions. --Bejnar (talk) 19:55, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
- Comment The creator of the Getfriday article, Frens1con, is now blocked. See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Smithonly1. Apparently sockpuppets were also created to edit the Getfriday article. --Bejnar (talk) 20:03, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
