Bloxers

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The title of the article is a commercial protologism; there is insufficient evidence yet of notability. (The article was prodded shortly after creation, but the prod message was removed.) --Lambiam 21:58, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Merge to Boxers - Hmmm. I've been keeping an eye on this article out of curiosity. Not surprised it came to AFD. There was a lot of international media flurry in July 2015. At least two French articles -, ; Italian , Indonesian , and Dutch , alongside dozens of English language articles. So there was definitely a flurry of international interest in mid-July, but it is clearly too soon and pretty much equivalent to a single event. Enough for a mention in Boxers at this point, but let's see if they're still getting coverage a year or so later. For now, merge and if they continue the way they've started, then an article sounds like a good idea, but for now - TOO SOON. Mabalu (talk) 22:29, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
 * The media attention echoed the info in their press kit and was clearly due to the curiosity value, but, as far as I can tell, the product is not in production. You can "preorder" one via their website for $29.99, but the Indiegogo campaign ended with 12% of its goal and only 81 backers, so there is room for doubt that this will ever enter production. --Lambiam 10:34, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete Pure WP:ADVERT for a product never put into production with the usual Kickstarter-like buzzspeak to distract that a mainstream product like this is likely already on the market.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 15:52, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete for now as I'm not seeing much better improvement here. SwisterTwister   talk  20:30, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete. Too much of an advertisement.  Although it has made headlines on Google News, they are mainly clickbait. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 00:38, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete as per nom and above editors. At best WP:TOOSOON, and definitely too promotional.  Onel 5969  TT me 13:22, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
