promotional article based on entirely promotional sources. Thje best of them is BBC, but that's a mdel of a promotional interview where she says what she thinks about her own business, without any analysis, from an article series designed to let a variety of business leaders do just that. That's not RS journalism, but PR. The other references are even less subtle about it. The only notability here is perhaps their PR company. DGG ( talk ) 09:19, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep notable sources exist, such as in Forbes. Balle010 (talk) 15:59, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The Forbes articles is by a "contributor", that is, not one of their staff, and not subject to their usual editorial control. The actual article is another promotional interview in which they say what they please about their own business,. This is not an independent source, for it just repeats their words (or, more likely, the words of their PR agent), DGG ( talk ) 17:55, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
