Yasni

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

Article was written by a person paid by the company. Article is, therefore not surprisingly, biased. There are no reliable and independent sources. NoCultureIcons (talk) 16:29, 22 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The single ref in the article is poor, but there is also a Zeit article discussing Yasni in both headline and article, albeit in a context with competing aggregators such as 123people and Spock (website), which may be indicative of some local notability.

Comment There might be enough references to write a good and independet article, however this is rather a press release than an article. --Doc z (talk) 10:03, 4 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete, doesn't seem to meet WP:WEB, although there may be additional sources in German available that I can't read. Lankiveil ^{(speak to me)} 11:46, 12 August 2012 (UTC).[reply]
Comment First of all, this is a website seen and sometimes used by Wikipedia editors while researching notability. Next, as per WP:BEFORE step B6, "Check if there are interlanguage links, also in the sidebar, which may lead to more developed and better sourced articles." I clicked on one link in the German Wikipedia and found this ref. I think that the course of this discussion would be different had the sources on the German Wikipedia been mentioned in the nomination. I've also tried to track down the claim that there is a paid editor involved. The fact that the claim is unsourced should be a red flag. There is discussion on the German Wikipedia, both on the talk page of the creator and the talk page of the German article, which even with Google translate remains unclear to me what it means. At a minimum, the editor alleged to have written a biased article should get an invitation on his/her German Wikipedia talk page to this discussion.
