A 7-person PR firm that is not the subject of two in-depth reliable sources as required by WP:CORP. Most sources are press releases and broken links. Being minority-owned is not really that notable and has not attracted substantial attention from RS'. CorporateM (Talk) 04:36, 10 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep HuffPost is pretty big and is 1/2 of two required media references. Can't somebody find one more independent media reference to this group? (btw, some billion dollar companies have 4-person lobbying groups in D.C.; four people is all you need to keep up a regular liaison with Congress.-Augustabreeze (talk) 13:01, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I have added a link to streetwise.co which is owned by Conde Nast, a world famous media organization. With the addition of one more independent media reference, this AfD should be formally changed to KEEP.-Augustabreeze (talk) 14:18, 22 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Snow Delete:Pure advertising, zero coverage except press releases. Not notable. Did Google News searches, found nothing. Please note the double voting above. Marksterdam (talk) 18:34, 29 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reiterate keep Hello, AfD contributor, thank you for your contribution. Please note the AfD is not a vote. It is an attempt to establish whether or not the topic has reached compatibility with WP notability guidelines. The added link streetwise.co is owned by Conde Nast, which is a universally recognized international media outlet. Huffington Post + Conde Nast = 2, repeat, 2 independent major newspaper articles about the establishment. Thanks. This isn't a popularity contest. It isn't a horse race. I don't like the Caraway Group. I don't like Park Cho-rong. THE NEW YORK TIMES and THE WASHINGTON POST declare that Yolanda Caraway is at the highest reaches of Democratic Party politics. That is it. End story. -Augustabreeze (talk) 12:59, 1 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note to closer: Please note that Augustabreeze has put a keep vote in bold three times now. While it may not be a popularity contest, the actual tally so far is 2 delete and 1 keep. I took a quick glance at the article's new sources, but they appear to be directory-type sources, brief mentions, etc. CorporateM (Talk) 15:16, 1 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
