I have previously objected to the deletion, but the website is gone now so the page is completely useless. iopq (talk) 09:06, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

We don't delete biographies because people die, we don't delete articles about buildings because they're torn down, and we don't delete articles about companies because they no longer exist. Whether or not the company is no longer active is not relevant, only if they were notable and verifiable. History is important too. /Julle (talk) 15:45, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It wasn't particularly notable when it existed either. -iopq (talk) 19:52, 28 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: A WP:SPA article about an online company. The article text and references describe its proposition and site features at start-up without making substantial claim to notability. There was a previous WP:PROD by an IP, which was rightly objected as the rationale was invalid: "This entity is referencing its, presumably, self-created article in unsolicited spam email. Presumably, this is to legitimize itself by reference. Propose deletion." Beyond the initial start-up announcement and some slightly later announcement coverage [1] I am seeing nothing in terms of in-depth coverage of the platform or, for that matter, for its presumed demise. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH, WP:NWEB. AllyD (talk) 14:58, 7 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep WP:CORPDEPTH has been cited, but it says "The depth of coverage of the subject by the source must be considered. If the depth of coverage is not substantial, then multiple[2] independent sources should be cited to establish notability. Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject is not sufficient to establish notability." This subject meets that. Capitals00 (talk) 16:53, 8 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete doesn't meet WP:GNG. The coverage is all of the launch (so not sustained), and largely in blogs/trade press websites that are now defunct. power~enwiki (π, ν) 15:47, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete -- 100% advertorial content starting with the lead: "...interactive, multi-platform social eCommerce website...". Does not meet WP:NWEB / WP:CORPDEPTH either. K.e.coffman (talk) 04:48, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
