Oppose. The article in its present state definitely needs improving with more independent sources, but a quick Google search shows they are out there. Seems notable enough. Buttons0603 (talk) 14:48, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Please explicitly point to at least two of the sources that your search turned up. Don't handwave at sources in discussions. Cite them. Uncle G (talk) 19:23, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  An article was posted today by Euronews about the application. I will be replacing links to the Twitter with that article since it confirms those dates and pieces of info. That should solve a majority of the information issues on the wiki page.

Keep. Very notable per sources identified above. Maybe on the long run this can be merged somewhere. gidonb (talk) 12:31, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Although I understand that many sources I cited are from Ukraine Alerts twitter account, I do need to clarify that the reason I did this was to cite specific dates as apposed to information. There are many sources of information as listed by @ArsenalGhanaPartey above. So it is lost on me as to why this would be marked for deletion by @MarioGom. Please help me understand by clarifying below. I will be working on adding the France24 source listed above.
Also note that it was spoken about on i24 as well which was cited in the article as well as Walla! BOvcharenko (talk) 02:51, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

BOvcharenko: While Twitter can be used in some cases (see WP:ABOUTSELF), it is not a reliable source, which mean it does not count towards notability. Articles about products need to meet the WP:NCORP notability guideline. The criteria are summarized in WP:ORGCRIT: A company, corporation, organization, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject. This did not seem the case when I nominated the article for deletion, but sources examined during this discussion can lead to the article to be kept if they meet the cited criteria.

Keep. There are sources, I found a few from a quick google search. ArsenalGhanaPartey (talk) 17:36, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
