inadequate references for notability -- essentially all references are press releases or notices. DGG ( talk ) 04:07, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
- Delete I thought I'd actually nominated this as I did a full before and found it lacked the multiple reliable independent secondary sources discussing it in signficant detail we expect for NCORP articles. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 04:11, 9 July 2019 (UTC)

- Delete and open a UPE investigation. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 10:29, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
- Keep I have done better research and updated the article with proper secondary sources. It was careless from my part not noticing press releases. What are the other changes you might suggest to improve the article quality? Thanks Smehh (talk) 15:39, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per nom, all the sources added (both in the version as nominated for AfD and the current revision) seem to be press releases. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 09:49, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
- Keep After review it appears that original editor has changed the article sources to independent news providers. Review is needed. Stoupa84 (talk) 12:34, 10 July 2019 (UTC)— Stoupa84 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

- Comment I re-read just now every one of the proposed sources, to make sure I'm not just going by impressions. Everything is still PR, except 3,4, and 9 which are more accurately termed mere notices, and 6 is an enthusiastically uncritical review--even if it is naïvely seen as a honest 3rd party source, it wouldn't be enough to justify an article. . Two of the blatant indications here are that some of the pr references are almost identical, and that many of them quote an interview with the firm's executive as most of the content. The attempt to keep this article has been advertised off-WP, and small amounts of money offered to those saying keep. I think a snow close is appropriate. Not speedy, for we need to be able to use G5 for the probable future re-creations. DGG ( talk ) 19:28, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

- Delete Per norm. Not notable. looks like part of a PR campaign WP:ARTSPAM, subtle, but there. Dlohcierekim (talk) 01:43, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
