 * Weak keep, considering I moved the article from AfC based on the coverage in multiple news sources, for example those (and this one  behind a pay wall) currently cited in the article which DGG seems to have failed to look at. I've no great love of the subject or particularly care if the article goes, but promotional wording is a clean-up (not a deletion) issue. Meets the bare minimum of WP:NCORP.

 * Weak keep per Sionk - the coverage in sources seems to be independent and just enough to meet WP:GNG. A google search for "canvas application store" throws up a few hits. It doesn't help though, that Facebook also appear to have a games API also called Canvas - I assume that's nothing to do with these guys? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  16:32, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep the Washington Post coverage certainly does not qualify as "mere mentions" and IMO is sufficient to establish notability. --ThaddeusB (talk) 15:46, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
