PathWater

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Does not meet WP:NCORP. Sources are all press releases, mentions, announcements, and comments from those associated with the company.


 * REF # 1 Not independent of the subject


 * REF # 1 Lacks in-depth significant coverage


 * REF # 3 Press release article


 * REF # 4 Press release article


 * REF # 5 mentions in passing


 * REF # 6 mentions in passing

All in all sources do not provide significant, in-depth, independent coverage in multiple reliable sources. Google search of it mostly brings up PR articles. Umakant Bhalerao (talk) 05:53, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Per Nom and . A source that includes the subject as "one of three" is just passing mention. Aquahydrate could make the same claims and might have a better chance since it includes Mark Wahlberg, Sean Combs and Frank Khalid (international recognition), except the sources for these and the likes of Alkahydrate as well as the many hundreds of others, are largely promotional.

 * Delete Agree with nominator, does not meet notability levels. VViking Talk Edits 21:50, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Disagree with nominator, it does meet notability levels. Source 1, as mentioned by nominator, is the publication of a major university where the founders studied. Isn't that a primary source? Sources 5 and 6 do not mention in passing, they are about how school districts are using the bottles. Compared to Princes Gate Spring Water, Ice Mountain (water), or Tipperary Natural Mineral Water this article seems well sourced. I added a few additional sources.

 * Right, the company founders are alumni of Foothill and therefore the Foothill article is a primary source and not independent of the subject per WP:PRIMARY. Primary sources do not help demonstrate notability. References 5 and 6 literally mention the subject in passing and fails WP:SIGCOV. I see you have added only one reference which is written by a contributor and not by a CNET staff and quite an example of dependent coverage, please see here (point # 4).--Umakant Bhalerao (talk) 15:07, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
