 * Your just ref bombing the same exact sources above that already didnt work. Which isn't helpful. Give it up. Seriously. Adamant1 (talk) 21:48, 7 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Glittershield You need to read WP:PAID Yourmasterishere (talk) 08:51, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

The first source which I had provided is different from the second one the contents in the article is completely different, I am not trying to promote this company but I do think they are notable. Rest I leave it to the team to decide. Thanks, Glittershield (talk) 15:50, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Conspicuous case of WP:MILL, nothing notable is being offered by the subject. All refs fail WP:INDEPENDENT & WP:RELIABLE as they are WP:MADEUP, WP:FAKE & WP:HOAX. The subject has entered into what is called as Chain Marketing wherein a customer pays an amount to a main news group which publishes some coverage on the customer and then that coverage is replicated by subsequent "chain" entities which have a tie up arrangement with the main company. This model is resorted to by PR agents to demonstrate that their client has wide coverage across the media which is not the reality. Such kind of absurdity is observable by evaluating the title, date and time of publication and the disclaimers posted. The same has been elaborated below:


 * ,, and all have the same title and all were published on January 21, 2020. Their time of publication is further quite close and all state at the end: This story is provided by NewsVoir. ANI will not be responsible in any way for the content of this article.. The biggest fact to be noted is that In all the refs, exact text has been plainly replicated in verbatim. How can a genuine media output copy something in an exact manner unless there is some commercial aspect?


 * even states that: (This story has not been edited by Business Standard staff and is auto-generated from a syndicated feed.). Similarly, states at the end Disclaimer :- This story has not been edited by Outlook staff and is auto-generated from news agency feeds.
 * & falls into WP:UNENCYC since it does not provide anything encyclopedic and as mentioned above, its just a case of run of the mill. Similarly, states one thing about the subject that it raised some funding which does not enable it to continue listing here at WP.
 * is on the industry and not on the subject. is not at all on the subject and purposely added to influence the consensus. Moreover, in the article, first and third references have been duplicated to increase the number of sources. Crystal case of WP:DNTL
