  • Delete as still questionable for WP:CORP, the Business Journals have been known for being hinted promotional for companies and none of the other listed websites are solidly satisfying anyway, overall this is still questionable for better. SwisterTwister talk 21:15, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • The Business Journals are heavily used for starting companies and this is clearly the case with the coverage only being expected for a starting company, there's nothing to suggest there's established solidity yet and therefore should not be kept until there's better available.
