The Next Web[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Inadequate refs for notability. Almost everything here is their own site. I couldn't find the Wired UK item, but it alone wouldn't support this article. And promotional writing--the tell-tell "to improve your personal and professional life" is representative. DGG ( talk ) 03:46, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: I'm not finding any WP:RS to indicate sufficient notability. Safehaven86 (talk) 04:23, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and this is an amusing one because it's largely used by companies of which we delete themselves entirely, so there's therefore questionability of guranteed non-PR, since that's exactly why churnalism exists and is exists quite so. SwisterTwister talk 04:47, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete In agreement with SwisterTwister . People/ companies are using this as source for their notability. Nothing here itself. Light2021 (talk) 20:31, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

delete as it stands - given it is in fact a minor RS, I'm actually surprised there's nothing about the site or company itself that I could find either - David Gerard (talk) 09:16, 9 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
