Promotional article, also seems to lack sources meeting the WP:ORGDEPTH thresholds. MrsSnoozyTurtle 02:44, 26 March 2023 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 06:44, 2 April 2023 (UTC)

 * This article describes a newer trade group. It would be common in early stage to not have a large variety of sources. This article does cite prominent corporations in the marketplace working on these standards. In this regard this page is no different to the early startup period of many other similar groups on Wikipedia including to name a few:
 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_Special_Interest_Group
 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_Alliance
 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSMA
 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connectivity_Standards_Alliance
 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institute_of_Electrical_and_Electronics_Engineers
 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Apache_Software_Foundation Mccamon (talk) 18:16, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
 * And I should have added, I used the Wi-Fi Alliance and Bluetooth pages as my template outline to create the page in the first place. Mccamon (talk) 18:24, 5 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Comment Hello, thank you for the suggestion. Yes, I would consider draftification as an appropriate WP:ATD here. MrsSnoozyTurtle 07:10, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Leaning to keep - a relatively new nonprofit organisation formed by several notable organisations. Being new - not a huge amount of secondary sources however there are some available with sigcov - this is a good example. I've started to clean up some of the article but it does need more work. I would concur draftify preferable in the event of a deletion result. ResonantDistortion 09:53, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep ResonantDistortion is correct, meets our guidelines for inclusion. Lightburst (talk) 23:39, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
