Subject fails WP: COMPANY notability and article appears to fail WP:PROMO. Sources are mostly primary (the company's own website) and those that aren't are just generic investopedia pages which are not specific to this company. A quick search for secondary sources turns up nothing, and the article is also structured like a simple course syllabus brochure. Headphase (talk) 04:51, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Previously deleted via WP:PROD, ineligible for soft deletion.

  • Delete I agree it reads like a syllabus brochure, WP:PROMO BrigadierG (talk) 12:36, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. None of the references in the article meet the criteria. I have been unable to find any references that meet NCORP criteria, topic fails WP:NCORP. HighKing++ 15:31, 8 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
