Legendary Ventures

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

No reliable sources nor in-depth coverage; only routine announcements on its investments. Doesn't pass WP NCROP Edit.pdf (talk) 08:00, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Finance, Companies,  and New York.  Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 08:04, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * keep there are many reliable sources such as:
 * https://www.socaltech.com/spacex_gets_investment_from_legendary_ventures/s-0080383.html
 * https://startup-weekly.com/Legendary-Ventures-invests-in-Elon-Musks-SpaceX/
 * https://www.alpha-week.com/legendary-ventures-partners-girl-scouts-usa
 * I have also added a few new articles.

BTW, I think this nomination is done in bad faith by a new and inexperienced editor with less than 33 edits.Amberj1985 (talk) 02:02, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
 * You've only been active since last November, you can't be a wiki expert in 6 months either. Please review what we consider reliable sources. Then you can revisit and understand why what you've listed ins't useful. Oaktree b (talk) 23:22, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Startup Weekly and Alpha Week are not reliable sources, spammy blogs. We can't use them as sources. Oaktree b (talk) 23:18, 14 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep I see enough coverage, so it is notable per WP:NCORP. Kakara69 (talk) 08:25, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * where? Edit.pdf (talk) 15:49, 11 April 2023 (UTC)


 * we discuss the article notability, not the persons. Edit.pdf (talk) 15:50, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, CycloneYoris talk! 22:45, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I am leaning towards delete. The article is very promotional and has the whiff of paid editing.  And the coverage is mostly press releases about run-of-the-mill investments. Walt Yoder (talk) 17:10, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete The "sources" used aren't RS. You'll want a New York Times report on the company, not some random website. There are none, so we must delete. Oaktree b (talk) 23:20, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete: Fails GNG and NCORP. Notability is not inherited from their clients.

 * Delete This is a company therefore GNG/NCORP criteria apply. Excellent work by TimothyBlue above which shows the article is refbombed with promo links. I'm unable to locate a single reference that meets our criteria for establishing notability.  HighKing++ 17:33, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
