  • Opposed - The company's SQX-1Z rocket just flew a successful sub-orbital flight. Although this company may not impact the western market, its technological achievements are notable, as indicated by the references, and is likely to succeed in the Asian market. Cheers, Rowan Forest (talk) 17:48, 7 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - given that this is a Chinese company, I would hesitate to vote delete for failing to meet notability without evidence of a thorough search of Chinese-language sources. See WP:WORLDVIEW. Rosguilltalk 20:58, 7 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Opposed - In agreement with Rowan Forest and Rosguill. Csgir (talk) 05:41, 8 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There are enough sources in English [1][2][3][4], as well as in Chinese [5][6][7]. Should qualify under WP:GNG. I would however retitle it to something more succinct (for example the word private is unnecessary, although Chinese may be needed as there appears to be a similarly titled Japanese one -[8]).

I agree. I just moved it to I-Space (Chinese company). Cheers, Rowan Forest (talk) 14:45, 10 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep – The company has been notable since their first test flight in April 2018, and the second test in September seals the deal for posterity. Sources in the article are good enough to meet the GNG bar. We would need to discuss the article name, because the company is sometimes referred to as "Space Honor", but that's for another debate. — JFG talk 09:29, 11 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep it seems hard to see how this one wouldn't get over the WP:GNG bar all things considered. Simonm223 (talk) 18:26, 12 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as per the previous contributors. MaeseLeon (talk) 08:44, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
