MarketLive, Inc.

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable company lacking ghits and Gnews of substance. References are mostly press releases. Appears to fail WP:COMPANY. red dog six (talk) 00:44, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - Agreed, a Google News search found one recent press release here but a Google News archives search immediately provided press releases, with some non-press releases here (for a new CIO in 2008), here (for a new CEO that same year), here (also mentions the new CEO), here (brief mention for sales percentages which briefly mentions CEO Mark Pierce), here ($20M in funding from investors), here (a new agreement with Omniture, narrowly reads like a press release) and here (announcing MarketLive 5). The press releases continue page after page which outweighs the few good sources. Too much of this article's content is promotional and is obviously from the company's website (like the press releases). Google Books found this which seems to talk about the history and the founder but aside from that, nothing else useful. Considering the article lists so many partners, I would have expected in-depth and significant coverage and better achievements. This AfD can run its course but I think the article may be criteria for speedy deletion G11. SwisterTwister   talk  03:04, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
