Nine Technology

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Fails the notability guideline for companies. Press releases, blogs, and purely routine coverage of acquisitions do not contribute to notability. This article was previously proposed for deletion in 2011, but Ajvsell, the page creator, removed the tag, commenting I believe that the issuing of a patent for the technology ... makes it notable. This stance is not backed by any policy or guideline; significant coverage in reliable sources is what matters. – Teratix ₵ 07:03, 15 November 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete I agree that the current sourcing is not enough. There is only one independent source, and that source is rather superficial and routine-ish (technically, WP:ROUTINE is about events, but the only current claim to notability is inherited from this one event, the acquisition; regardless, I don't think it contributes much to significant coverage, due to its superficiality).

 * Whatever the guideline shortcut cited, the Computerworld coverage does meet the definition of "standard notices, brief announcements, and routine coverage" specified in WP:CORPDEPTH, in other words trivial . The article also looks like a press release with a byline. • Gene93k (talk) 07:45, 17 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete. WP:CORP failure per comments above with a complete lack of non-trivial RS coverage, either cited by the article or found in independent searching. • Gene93k (talk) 07:45, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:NCORP. Entirely generic product with little encyclopedic knowledge, just standard notices.   scope_creep Talk  19:25, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
