nn dead business - Altenmann >talk 16:54, 17 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Keep.
 * 1. You have to actually say why it should be deleted, not just cite the notability guideline.
 * 2. This article actually has a few decent sources, and a few more can be found by googling:
 * - https://www.blogto.com/tech/2013/04/new_website_aims_to_foster_city_building_in_toronto/, a full article on it
 * - https://web.archive.org/web/20170309094042/http://www.cbc.ca/metromorning/episodes/2013/04/04/crowd-sourcing/, a CBC interview
 * - https://urbantoronto.ca/news/2015/06/projexity-platform-grassroots-urban-initiatives.16288, an interview article with a few paragraphs of exposition (independent) that can be used
 * - https://web.archive.org/web/20170613192928/https://gridphilly.com/grid-magazine/2013/4/9/a-blossoming-vision-for-south-philly-high-school.html, a description of its use in a school
 * Pretty sure this satisfies notability, based on the sources that are already there and a google search. Mrfoogles (talk) 17:30, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Also https://web.archive.org/web/20210802231748/https://torontoist.com/2013/07/kensington-market-tries-to-crowdfund-its-fight-against-riocan-and-walmart/, which is a pretty good one Mrfoogles (talk) 17:47, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I dont find these sources satisfy GNG, for a number of reasons. For example all of them are old and local, and the project died decade ago. - Altenmann >talk

 * Keep an inactive topic is not a valid deletion reason. The same logic could lead to deletion of all our history-related articles. — Alien333 (what I did &amp; why I did it wrong) 19:56, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
 * please don't cherry-pick / red-herring: the nom was nn dead. Of course we have on plenty of out-of-business articles. A bit below I also replied why I think it does not satisfy GNG. - Altenmann >talk 22:59, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete: Defunct or not, I don't see this enterprise as meeting notability. The sourcing isn't helpful; an interview, a primary source and a non-Rs blog-type website. This is all I could find, still lacking enough RS to cover this in order to get an article here. Oaktree b (talk) 20:18, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Doczilla  Ohhhhhh, no! 21:32, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete. There's nothing close to a WP:NCORP pass in the sources brought up in this AfD, and the article's current state is mostly branding language. -- asilvering (talk) 05:35, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

 * Keep - this should have been closed as procedural keep a while ago, as a business being defunct is not a valid deletion reason. While Toronto Blog isn't a great source - it's good for fleshing out articles; and this 2013 article is a better source than the other two used/suggested. Also there are sources out there, such as an article in the magazine Building from 2014 ( and an in-depth article in the City Centre Mirror - which while local, is from a major media outlet - Torstar. Speaking of the Toronto Star (the largest newspaper in the nation), there's 2 or 3 sources there, such as this. There's arguments about it being local coverage - however there was a 2014 Canadian Press article carried nationally from coast-to-coast in major and minor papers, from Halifax ( to Kimberly, BC .

 * Delete: Reeks of UPE slop: "Projexity's tools aim to make it easy for the public to submit content such as events and initiatives to organizations directly through their own websites, effectively transforming any website into a dynamic community hub". Gee willikers! No sources, no real demonstration or claim to notability, no cigar. jp×g🗯️ 11:10, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete as it fails WP:NCORP. - Amigao (talk) 12:35, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
