An article about a non-notable individual, created by essentially a single purpose account. There are no sources in the article that are both independent and give the subject significant coverage. Kohlrabi Pickle (talk) 06:30, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The usernames of at least three of this article's major contributors, Lingyin, Rachelpang, and Gouriepandey match (according to LinkedIn) the names of people who were employees at the subject's consultancy at the time of their edits. There has been no COI declaration from them (and undoubtedly the AFC reviewer would have scrutinised this article more thoroughly if there had been), and their edit histories are almost exclusive to this article.
