Sheex

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No evidence of any notability for this company. The references are for key personnel and the company's own web-site. Searches reveals a few product reviews and a court case about patent infringement but nothing substantial. Nothing here suggests notability of the company itself.

 * Delete as nothing at all for solid independent notability, article is not convincing. SwisterTwister   talk  12:53, 3 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment – See WP:NEXIST. Topic notability is not based upon the state of sourcing in articles, it is based upon the availability of reliable sources. North America1000 12:29, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Leaving aside the high probability that all of these are essentially re-worded press releases, they give no notability to the company. What they might give is notability to a product made by the company, but looking at the similarities in the woding in the sources, I even doubt that.  Velella  Velella Talk 13:25, 5 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Comment – You have provided no evidence to substantiate your opinion of the sources supposedly being "re-worded press releases"; they are not. These are bylined news articles from reputable news sources. Several of the sources provide significant background and history about the company and its founders. For starters, read the articles from The Huffington Post and CNBC. Then be sure to also read the Columbia Regional Business Report article. Did you even read the articles, or just glance at "similarities in the woding in the sources"? North America1000 13:28, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
