Abcence

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

One-year-old company; looks very far from satisfying WP:NCORP. Virtually all sources are directories merely showing that the company exists; the most in-depth one (reference 7) is just an interview which says nothing about the organisation itself.

 * Comment: The references supporting this article pertain to "Digispice Technologies", even those where the reference title has been adjusted to include the name "Abcence". I am seeing no independent coverage to indicate that Digispice Technologies has become Abcence as claimed in the article text, nor is any such change evident on the Digispice website and the company continues to report results and acquisitions under that name: . By contrast, I am finding nothing about "Abcence" and the website is not found. AllyD (talk) 08:44, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete: I described above concerns about claiming Digispice's past and present; since then the article creator has deleted the not-found website from the article. The firm has also been inserted into the Dove Airlines article, again with no references to support the ownership claim, and with Dove's website inoperative. Similar was done for the Klikk article but reverted. That Klikk ownership claim was also inserted into Wikidata (which I have reverted), as is a claim to partnership with Tata Consultancy Services: . An article on Abcence was also recently deleted from pl.wiki as non-notable company spam . I also notice the Enytially parent's Crunchbase page links a recent $100K seed funding round and claims the firm has "gained international recognition after purchasing several global companies" and to be "one of the biggest industrial company in India" - all with a not-found website. Overall, the editing around this article and related assets on other Wiki projects seems to be attempting to construct a presence claiming relationships with established firms and is at best factually questionable. Fails WP:NCORP. AllyD (talk) 16:20, 4 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. That means, nothing that relies on company information or announcements or interviews, etc. None of the references in the article meet the criteria. I have been unable to find any references that meet NCORP criteria, topic fails WP:NCORP. There are also concerns that this appears to be either a spoof article (nothing available to confirm the "name change". <b style="font-family: Courier; color: darkgreen;"> HighKing</b>++ 15:37, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
