Broadvision Perspectives

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Not notable company; practically no coverage in news; the single economictimes ref shows info on another company; most reference from primary source (company website); details of work done with clients clearly promotional. GDibyendu (talk) 05:27, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete. Promotional and less than informative article about a business describing itself as a a strategic consulting company.... that advises clients in the areas of Brand Strategy, Employer Branding, Brand Research, Package Design, Brand Promotions and allied People Advisory Services. Odd use of capital letters is itself diagnostic.  Bulk of the article is self-laudatory descriptions of its PR campaigns.  A run of the mill PR firm using Wikipedia for self-promotion. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 21:44, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - It could be the language and country barriers but I haven't found anything substantial (primary sources, yes) despite multiple detailed searches including the founder, Sriram Chandrasekaran. A search with Procter & Gamble provided some results for an American "enterprise portal applications" company but not for an Indian company, and another press release for that American company here but absolutely nothing for this Indian company. Additionally, there really isn't much useful information at the company's website, broadvision.asia, only promotional information and not even a list of employees such as CEO, CFO, etc. Searches at nationally known newspapers such as Financial Chronicle, Times of India (though I don't consider this one to be reliable sometimes) and The Hindu provided nothing useful or relevant. I have no prejudice for a new article if notability is established but this one is entirely promotional and the references listed never actually talk about the company (aside from the primary links of course).

 * Delete Although superficially it appears to be well sourced, many of them are either about their clients such as Inwinex Pharmaceuticals' source from the Economist (which actually isn't even an article but only a management staff listing) or trivial mentions. Also the article has major WP:ADVERT concerns. Mkdw talk 20:44, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
