This Wikipedia page has been created by the company itself previously known as Trop-X Limited G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion ; the author of this Wikipedia page is Mbtropx from this company, same for major contributor Trop-xuser. Matches also A1 and A3 for lack of context and content and it is not the "Seychelles Securities Exchange" as previously stated in the title. From the Operations section and onwards, MERJ Exchange Limited is basically promoting its products and services. The only potential accurate source is from a single author from Bloomberg Africa, Antony Sguazzin, that does not seem having verified all the given information. A lot of external links do not follow Wikipedia's policies or guidelines. Most of the sources are not at all reliable. They quoted irrelevant sources like Investment Frontier. And all over this article, we see the promotional tone. An example is: "MERJ is the world's first truly global, direct access end to end regulated market built for digital and non digital securities". }} HLFH (talk) 13:37, 6 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - A promotional, unsourced, and non-notable article. Koridas (Speak) 16:44, 6 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment of AfD author - Following standard English text formatting and capitalization practices, Wikipedia should not accept the trademark & company with nonstandard promotional formatting, and with "MERJ [...]", it is badly written 39 times on this article. I am also adding that Merj has listed two security tokens: MVST-S and it has not at all been traded as seen on the Ethereum blockchain explorer Etherscan. Regarding the other security token MERJ-S, it is not traded at all as it has stayed at 2.42$ since at least August 2019. I do believe Merj is buying its notability and enforcing it by having created this Wikipedia page on its own instead of letting Wikipedia contributors create this page for this company once it will be notable. It is also not the "national securities exchange" or "national stock exchange" of the Seychelles because the Seychelles has fully liberalised its financial services under the Seychelles FSA: any company once compliant and authorised by the FSA can be a securities exchange in the Seychelles.

  • Delete per WP:NCORP, WP:MILL, and WP:SIGCOV. This is one of the smallest stock exchanges in the world, period. Bearian (talk) 15:28, 10 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
