Strands Social Player

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

An article on a media player that was in the market around 14 years ago. Several new product awards are listed (e.g. the "Up and Coming App of the Year" award at GetJar's Mobile Awards in 2008), but for me these seem like typical promising-start-up awards rather than evidence demonstrating that encyclopaedic notability was attained. An article on the vendor company was recently deleted at AfD so there is no clear WP:ATD. AllyD (talk) 07:09, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete. Most of the sources appear to be primary (either from the developer or related companies), with some PR sprinkled in. Awards appear to be minor and not other signs of notability. Also written as an advertisement. Isabelle 🏳‍🌈 14:39, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Archived copy of article that was deleted: https://ghostarchive.org/archive/FeW1o?kreymer=true
 * Does not meet WP:NCORP - most of the sources here are primary, or are sources which NCORP states does not establish notability
 * I did do DuckDuckGo web search and these came up, and while the sources look reliable, the mention of strands is only passing:
