Instanza

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

Not a notable company. Fails WP:GNG and WP:ORG.

On my own, I could find no articles that represent independent and significant coverage from reliable sources about Instanza.

The article has four references in it. Two are about a barely related subject (Harvard's i-lab) and only mention the company's product and never even mention Instanza.

As a note, the notability of the product itself (Coco (application)) means nothing for the notability of the company that makes it. Notability is not inherited. This is outlined specifically in WP:PRODUCT.

On a side note, this was the author's first article and the only other article they worked on was the product's article. They seem to be an WP:SPA. WCS100 (talk) 01:07, 22 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

~~Since its product is notable, how about a redirect to Coco (application) ? --MelanieN (talk) 03:08, 27 April 2014 (UTC)~~[reply]

Worth noting that the product is itself also at AfD. AllyD (talk) 14:56, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't aware of that. I assumed from the comment above that the product's notability was evident. Looks like it isn't. Changing to delete. --MelanieN (talk) 02:18, 28 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Note - The article for Coco (application), the product made by this company, was deleted due to the subject not being notable. WCS100 (talk) 02:38, 2 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
