Rang De

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Article fails WP:NOTABILITY, WP:CORP. Riddled with self links and trivial coverage or mentions. Self-promotion and product placement are WP:NOT the routes to having an encyclopaedia article. Hu12 (talk) 18:17, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete nom is completely WP:RIGHT. Suprised this wasn't speedied. The Weak Willed 20:25, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment True, that this article is promotional but that can be changed. Just two reliable sources . But I think the main point here is that this is a totally new concept, at least in India. Although microlending exists, this is probably the first organization to offer people the opportunity to invest in microlending, at least the first in India. IMHO , this innovation makes it notable despite few RS. Will not vote because I like it. --Deepak D'Souza 02:38, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Week delete; as failing WP:ORG. There is one genuine secondary source, but the only two other mentions I could find are reprints of the company press release , . No objection to userification, since it is possible that more sources will be available in the future that will enable us to write a article based primarily on third-party sources.

 * Delete per WP:ORG. No objection to userfying, since it's likely that it will receive significant coverage in the near future. As Abecedare points out above, most of the coverage is regurgitated press releases. - SpacemanSpiff Calvin&#8225;Hobbes 16:36, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
