The result was delete. a 2008 AfD isn't binding on 2022, and there is no indication that sources found are independent or reliable to meet WP:ORG (nor are they asserted to be). Star Mississippi 03:19, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - doesn't meet GNG and reads like an advertisement -CameronVictoria (talk) 13:41, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment on above- I didn't see the previous discussion before where a consensus was established for notability of MapNTL as a service. Issue of non-encyclopaedic tone remains as well as the fact that mapntl.com goes nowhere for me but my vote for delete is now much weaker --CameronVictoria (talk) 14:49, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment if the article is kept, there is a problem in that the domain no longer belongs to the subject of the article, but the article's title is the domain name. Thus, if anyone buys the domain, we'll have to clarify the status of the domain, and the purchaser will automatically acquire at least a hat-note in a Wikipedia article ("this article applies to the defunct cartography service in Nigeria, not Mike ap Nuttal's fish-and-chip-shop in Aberystwyth, open now for the best chips ever!") without being notable. Perhaps if the article is kept, it should also be moved to a title making it clear it's a former website, either "MapNTL.com (former Nigerian map provider)" or just "MapNTL" to avoid the article advertising an irrelevant website.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Nomination statement is weak, per WP:NTEMP. No argument explains the inadequacy of the current sources, or otherwise available sources. Nor are there any arguments to indicate the topic is notable.

The only sources I can find are rather low-quality, mostly interview-based. They're things like this interview describing what happened to it (it became LagosLocation) [1], and this, which reads like routine publicity and is repeated in several sites: [2]. I still believe strongly that if the article is kept, it should be moved to MapNTL to distance itself from a particular domain-name, which will undoubtedly be used by someone else. We usually list businesses by their business name, not by their domain name, although it will often be the same but with dot-something. Elemimele (talk) 16:03, 30 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: No indication that RIMA Foundation Awards is a reliable organization. No reliable, independent sources are cited. Does not meet WP:GNG. Multi7001 (talk) 02:42, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
