Audacity, Inc. (advertising agency)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article about a non-notable corporation, previously speedy deleted, created by a WP:SPA user who's edit history consists entirely of editing and linking to this article.

The only remotely notable detail is that the agency was awarded "2nd place" in an advertising agency industry award event. The organization that hosts the awards does not have a Wikipedia article and doesn't seem particularly notable. The rest of the article includes only basic information about the business and doesn't establish significant third-party coverage or demonstrate that the subject is sufficiently notable to have it's own article

While the article appears well-sourced at first: I also want to note I just removed a page used as a source which contained an active malware threat (the site appears to be in French and I didn't stick around to verify if it supported the information it was used to source). Be warned if you try to check it.
 * two of the sources are press releases
 * two of the sources are a (duplicated) interview about the founder teaching at San Diego State which only make trivial references to the agency.
 * three of the remaining sources are used for trivial details about the agency's location and mission statement.

The author seems to think the article meets notability and depth of coverage guidelines. I leave it to AfD. Some guy (talk) 19:14, 16 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete — Per nom. I found a few other sources, but nothing very in-depth, and very little by unrelated parties. The subject fails both WP:GNG and WP:CORPDEPTH. JFHJr (㊟) 20:42, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete as non-notable; but fwiw, the article is slightly improved over the earlier speedy-deleted version, which also contained a list of clients.  DGG ( talk ) 05:49, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment That's because I deleted the list of clients. Some guy (talk) 10:57, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
