Fails WP:CORP and WP:GNG as lacking significant coverage in independent, third party sources. The references cited are either from the article subject or are limited interest, trade publications. The general thrust of the article is primarily promotional as contravened by WP:PROMO. Geoff &#124; Who, me? 15:38, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep this is a very popular + respected website. --Devokewater @  15:56, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep. Agree with User: Devokewater. SimilarWeb says the website is the 244th most popular website in the world. ] Alexa says the website is the 186th most popular website in the world.. Wikipedia does have the Wikipedia ignore all rules rule so that reasonableness can prevail over Wikipedia's independent, third party sources rule. Due to competition from the internet, many newspapers and colleges are closing so Wikipedia should not be overly reliant on journalists/academics. In addition, the website does have articles by Techcrunch, Venturebeat and Business Insider on it.Knox490 (talk) 01:16, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep: Per reasons above. Article is good enough to pass WP:GNG. ASTIG😎  (ICE T • ICE CUBE) 05:11, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete "popular + respected" does not mean notability in the wp sense.  DGG ( talk ) 02:44, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * It does seem likely that it's notable, but I haven't seen the sourcing yet (it's hard to filter through the many google hits). A challenge is that it's a very basic domain name, which is why some of the better sources aren't actually about the company or site but about the domain name itself (and the high price attached to it). The best I've found that wasn't just "they opened a new office" or "there's a canadian version now" is probably this Pando article, but it would be reassuring to see more like that. &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 14:27, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete: I see no evidence that this meets either the GNG or pertinent notability criteria for websites. The keep proponents haven't advanced a reason to avoid deletion beyond WP:ITSIMPORTANT.  It is not enough to claim that a website is noteworthy; one must have genuine evidence that it is.   Ravenswing      03:23, 27 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete- This does not appear to meet the GNG. It's a bit promotional and has been made to look properly sourced, but a closer inspection shows it's much worse than it looks. Reyk YO! 09:30, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
