Lawdex[edit]

Not quite a blatent ad IMO, so not a speedy. But no particular notability evident, and all listed sources are either PR releases from the firm itself, or simple directory listings that varify nothing more than its existance, and are probably based on content provided by the firm. Even based on thso sources, the firm started actual oiperations less than a year ago. Not notable. Fails WP:CORP DES ^(talk) 03:37, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Based on my nom abovce, delete. DES ^(talk) 03:37, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Week Keep because a/the claimed 7,000 users in 21 countries is a large number for this type of service, b/ the California application is only one of the applications of their software c/ they have a partnership arrangement with IBM, I added the link. d/ refs 1 & 3 are businesswire, published by Gale. it ultimately rests on the PR, but it's an edited and reliable news service, backed by a major publisher. I would expect additional refs, and, as usual with commercial organizations, would like to see a 3rd party report on market share. DGG 05:54, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep - but im concerned the sources seem to mention the subject in passing, but not in depth. the_undertow ^talk 07:07, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
