The result was keep. Seems like there are numerous independent sources available. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 05:59, 26 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Heritage Internet Technologies

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

References are very poor. Mentioned popular media references are written by close associate of company. No significant coverage by independent media. Nothing significant or notable about the company to be here. does not meet notability criteria. Light21 13:10, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'd keep this, actually - their collapse was definitely noteworthy and attracted a great deal of attention, per refs supplied - David Gerard (talk) 15:56, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Keep as very obviously notable. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 04:55, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- @Light2021: And, just to address the false claims that all the sources are close to the company and are not independent media:
  - Utah Business is an independent company that publishes a magazine about business in Utah. It has no connection to the company in question.
  - Inc. Magazine has no connection other than placing the company on its lists once or twice.
  - Shoestring Venture: The Startup Bible is a book written by people with no connection to the company and published by a publisher with no connection.
  - Entrepreneur Magazine is also independent
  - The Deseret Morning News is a local (to Utah) and national (it publishes a national edition subscribed to by thousands of people across the country) paper that has been in existence for far longer than this company. There is no connection between them, business or otherwise.
  - KSL has also been around far longer than the company, and has no connection to them at all.
  - The New York Post is very obviously not connected to the company.
  - The rest of them (BBB, Utah.gov, etc.) have no connection either. The only iffy one is "The Economic Report", which was a scam which duped many companies, including Heritage. Please do a little more research before making assumptions which can so easily be proven false. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 16:59, 22 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
