January 2015

 * 1) Boost (beverage): PROD; notified  06:55, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) * Reason: Might even qualify for CSD. Does not assert notability, comprises entirely primary sourced factual and/or marketing copy (and nutrition information).
 * 3) Musicator: PROD; notified  16:43, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
 * 4) * Reason: Fails WP:NSOFT. Doesn't even assert notability (but doesn't qualify for A7).
 * 5) Voyetra Digital Orchestrator Pro: PROD; notified  16:43, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
 * 6) * Reason: Fails WP:NSOFT. Doesn't assert notability, but doesn't qualify for A7.
 * 7) François Cotinaud: BLP PROD; notified  19:32, 19 January 2015 (UTC) (recreated later)
 * 8) RDW Group: PROD; notified  06:32, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
 * 9) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:CORPDEPTH. Does assert notability, but cites no sources to back it up.
 * 10) Brett Winterble: PROD; notified  22:57, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
 * 11) * Reason: Not seeing enough sources to pass WP:BIO.
 * 12) Gary Zaremba: PROD; notified  23:10, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
 * 13) * Reason: Not seeing enough sources to pass WP:BIO -- and those that exist do not appear sufficient to constitute a stand-alone article.
 * 14) The Sykaos Papers: PROD; notified  01:37, 30 January 2015 (UTC) (redirected to E. P. Thompson)
 * 15) * Reason: Unsourced article about a book which fails WP:NBOOKS. Well-known author, but not the kind of well-known that makes every publication independently notable.
 * 16) Unit++: PROD; notified  05:43, 30 January 2015 (UTC)
 * 17) * Reason: Unsourced stub does not assert notability but doesn't qualify for A7.
 * 18) Elegeion: PROD; notified  22:09, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
 * 19) * Reason: Doesn't look like the band passes WP:BAND. Current article built on unreliable sources (facebook, youtube, and bandcamp only).

February 2015

 * 1) Emmanuelle Somer: PROD; notified  02:55, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) * Reason: Looks to fail WP:MUSICBIO.
 * 3) Abilene Library Consortium: PROD; notified  03:55, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
 * 4) * Reason: Local group of libraries fails WP:ORG. Some of its member libraries may be notable, but I'm not seeing sufficient sources to show this is. No problem mentioning it on the member library pages, though.
 * 5) AxiUm: PROD; notified  00:28, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
 * 6) * Reason: Unsourced software article looks to fail WP:NSOFT and WP:GNG.
 * 7) Power Practice Px: PROD; notified  00:29, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
 * 8) * Reason: Unsourced software article looks to fail WP:NSOFT and WP:GNG.
 * 9) PracticeWorks: PROD; notified  00:32, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
 * 10) * Reason: Unsourced promo-style article tagged for OR since 2007 and COI since 2009. Software looks to fail WP:NSOFT and WP:GNG.
 * 11) Aria Maestosa: PROD; notified  06:37, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
 * 12) * Reason: Likely G11-worthy article exists as a list of features. notability secondary but still present issue.
 * 13) Premium Chess: PROD; notified  00:58, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
 * 14) * Reason: Does not look to satisfy WP:NWEB or WP:GNG (in the sense of sources covering the subject rather than incidental mentions of e.g. it hosting a notable event).

March 2015

 * 1) Vellore Institute of Technology Engineering Entrance Examination: PROD; notified  13:45, 2 March 2015 (UTC) (redirected to VIT University)
 * 2) * Reason: Subject fails WP:GNG. No reason for a stand-alone article, and the present content doesn't contain anything you couldn't find on its website.
 * 3) IguanaBee: PROD; notified  02:13, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
 * 4) * Reason: Extraordinarily promotional, insufficiently sourced article for a company of dubious notability.
 * 5) Mad Genius Software: PROD; notified  02:15, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
 * 6) * Reason: Fails WP:CORPDEPTH. Produced one game of dubious-to-marginal notability itself.
 * 7) OTS Software: PROD; notified  02:16, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
 * 8) * Reason: Company looks to fail WP:CORPDEPTH.
 * 9) Paladin Studios: PROD; notified  02:18, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
 * 10) * Reason: Fails WP:CORPDEPTH. I see a few sources covering its games (e.g. Momonga Pinball Adventures), but not significant coverage of the company itself.
 * 11) Swedish Game Development: PROD; notified  02:22, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
 * 12) * Reason: Company looks to fail WP:CORPDEPTH.
 * 13) Unified Streaming: PROD; notified  13:30, 24 March 2015 (UTC) (improved, deprodded)
 * 14) * Reason: Largely promotional article cites no reliable sources and does not look to satisfy GNG.

April 2015

 * 1) Christian hip hop debut list: endorsed PROD. 23:12, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) * Reason: endorse re: duplication

May 2015

 * 1) The Other (punk band): PROD; notified  02:32, 12 May 2015 (UTC) (deprodded by IP, went to AfD, redirected to Rich Kids on LSD)
 * 2) * Reason: Looks to be some WP:COPYVIO issues, but the bigger problem is WP:NBAND.
 * 3) Bill Venter: PROD; notified  01:37, 17 May 2015 (UTC) (disputed)
 * 4) * Reason: Looks to be a vanity article. Lots of promotional issues, WP:EL problems, and created by a sock puppet with the name User:Paul_venter to boot.
 * 5) Druids Celtic Cider: PROD; notified  21:48, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
 * 6) * Reason: Fails WP:GNG, unsourced, strange claims...

June 2015

 * 1) Intense Method: PROD; notified  17:04, 3 June 2015 (UTC) (deprodded, went to AfD, redirected to Rhythm D)
 * 2) * Reason: Fails WP:MUSBIO -- notability claim seems to be that a song appeared on a popular soundtrack album.
 * 3) Victor Intermediate School: PROD; notified  02:21, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
 * 4) * Reason: Unsourced article about intermediate/middle school that fails WP:GNG.
 * 5) List of Chitpavans: PROD; notified  15:10, 7 June 2015 (UTC) (redirected to Chitpavan)
 * 6) * Reason: A list of one is not a list, and not even a source to establish inclusion of that one.
 * 7) Melanie Maria Toney: endorsed PROD. 16:56, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
 * 8) * Reason: Also WP:BLPCRIME and WP:CRIME

July 2015

 * 1) GTTC: endorsed PROD. 14:05, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) * Reason: Endorsing prod. I can barely find any sources that even verify this exists. this book mentions something being marketed at "Green spot" but it's certainly not notable.
 * 3) List of Pakistani songs copied in Bollywood: endorsed PROD. 16:40, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
 * 4) * Reason: Endorsing prod. Not seeing an obvious CSD, but this is clearly inappropriate. The premise and first sentence have a broad scope, but is actually just a single example taken from a recent news story.
 * 5) RxPG: PROD; notified  21:23, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
 * 6) * Reason: No reliable sources whatsoever, grossly promotional, fails WP:GNG.
 * 7) Cognitive memory concept: endorsed PROD. 22:10, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
 * 8) * Reason: Endorsing prod. That there are zero relevant google hits for "cognitive memory concept" is telling.

August 2015

 * 1) The Big Ward: endorsed PROD. 20:37, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) * Reason: Endorsing prod. WP:TOOSOON/WP:CRYSTAL
 * 3) Adaptoid: PROD; notified  15:29, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
 * 4) * Reason: Not seeing any claim to notability and can't find sources to support it. Not sure why this wouldn't be a short sentence at most on the Nintendo 64 article.
 * 5) Brothers Services: PROD; notified  15:51, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
 * 6) * Reason: Company does not look to pass our standards for articles about companies at WP:CORPDEPTH.

September 2015

 * 1) Jack Stacey: endorsed PROD. 14:57, 2 September 2015 (UTC) (deleted, another article moved into its place)
 * 2) * Reason: Endorsing prod. WP:HOAX is made more clear by the infobox. No sources exist for "'jack stacey' er" that I can see.
 * 3) The acorn paradox: endorsed PROD. 15:23, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
 * 4) * Reason: Endorsing prod. This particular example looks to be specific to the book The Glimmering Time. If we had an article for that a redirect might make sense, but we don't.
 * 5) Dictindustry: PROD; notified  21:06, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
 * 6) * Reason: I had CSDed this as G11 when it was created, but removed the tag when the article creator expressed an interest in improving it. That never happened. It's still a promotional article that cites no sources.
 * 7) Grovo: PROD; notified  21:19, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
 * 8) * Reason: The company appears borderline notable, but this article is in need of WP:TNT for pervasive promotional content. I had removed some of it a while back, leaving it in an only marginally less promotional state, but it's only gotten worse since then (in part thanks for a pretty obvious WP:COI account). The text looks like it came directly from their marketing department. All that said, I'm not confident a G11 would stick and think the encyclopedia is better served with a TNT than a stubify.
 * 9) Download Express: endorsed PROD. 00:33, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
 * 10) * Reason: Endorsing prod. A product listing that has existed without real sources since 2006. One of the pages that makes me wonder why A7 doesn't apply to software...
 * 11) The New Essential Guide to Alien Species: endorsed PROD. 00:35, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
 * 12) * Reason: Endorsing prod. Doesn't cite a single source or make any semblance of a claim to notability (why doesn't A7 apply to books again?)

November 2015

 * 1) Six Weeks Records: PROD; notified  22:07, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) * Reason: No assertion of notability. Looks to exist to include a short list of redlinked releases? Not seeing sufficient sources to pass WP:GNG.
 * 3) Three Ring Records: PROD; notified  22:19, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
 * 4) * Reason: I'm just not seeing sources sufficient to satisfy WP:GNG here.
 * 5) Bear Creek Camp: PROD; notified  23:27, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
 * 6) * Reason: Not seeing sufficient coverage in reliable secondary sources to pass WP:GNG and article currently serves as a directory listing with its list of staff and sole primary source.
 * 7) Faces.com: endorsed PROD. 14:01, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
 * 8) * Reason: Just "sort of" an endorsement of the existing prod. It clearly does make an assertion of notability. The framing of the article is muddled, but it's clear the companies are combined, despite the story/arrangement not being wholly clear here. Profileheaven bought face-pic, then launched Faces. Profileheaven got a little bit of coverage, but Faces, as far as I can tell, has not. Now the two operate in tandem, with neither getting any coverage to speak of in years. The sourcing is also abysmal in the article. Here's what I say: Faces.com fails WP:WEBCRIT/WP:ORG. That's the subject of the article. It's possible, though I'm nto sure, that Profileheaven could squeak by, but so little of this article would be usable to make that without being speedied we should consider this WP:TNT.
 * 9) Rajesh Sharma (entrepreneur): BLP PROD; notified  14:24, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
 * 10) List of board game crowdfunding projects: endorsed PROD. 17:31, 18 November 2015 (UTC)
 * 11) * Reason: Endorsing prod. At best this is a WP:TNT scenario as it currently serves only as a directory of primary-sourced campaigns. There's an argument for it being promotional, but ultimately it just doesn't look notable (and, again, if I'm wrong about that WP:TNT applies)
 * 12) BeHappy2Day: PROD; notified  13:22, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
 * 13) * Reason: I started trimming excess information about an unrelated topic, a self-published book, etc. and started actually looking at the sources. I don't think any of them would qualify as meeting WP:RS and thus I'm not seeing evidence this passes WP:GNG.
 * 14) Reed Speaker Company: PROD; notified  05:48, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
 * 15) * Reason: Cannot find sources sufficient to satisfy WP:ORG.

December 2015

 * 1) ReVision: PROD; notified  19:45, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) * Reason: Unreferenced stub for a journal that looks to fail WP:GNG. Most of the sources I'm finding are written by people involved with the publication (sources need to be about the journal, rather than just citing it, and written by independent parties).
 * 3) Deborah Winters: PROD; notified  21:00, 12 December 2015 (UTC) (withdrawn)
 * 4) * Reason: Well, once you discount all of the very poor sources the article included, we have very little evidence of notability. Looks to fail WP:ENTERTAINER. Also, given the widespread sock puppetry, promotion, and all-around strangeness of Chaney-related articles, even if marginal WP:TNT might apply.
 * 5) Intercontinental Releasing Corporation: PROD; notified  21:56, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
 * 6) * Reason: Fails WP:CORPDEPTH. There might be a case for an article about Sandy Cobe based on the refs, but I'm not seeing (here or elsewhere) evidence that this company has received significant coverage in reliable sources. (Also, it's one of the many articles created by now-blocked sock puppets to promote Warren Chaney-related subjects, all of which seem to suffer from serious sourcing problems).
