The result was keep. Seems like we have enough evidence and arguments for notability. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 07:58, 23 December 2016 (UTC)

This was previously speedy deleted. It has been recreated by WP:SPA and likely WP:COI User:Conway2166, and tagged for notability issues by User:Staszek Lem. I've taken a look and I concur that the coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing General notability guideline and the more detailed Notability (companies) requirement. The refs are mostly business-as-usual from your usual press-release republishing startup coverage sites. Only one source from VentureBeat looks like reasonable coverage... but I don't think a single blog (and this is what VB) is makes much difference here. It is WP:CORPSPAM written for promotional purposes.

 * delete insufficient independent evidence of notability. Staszek Lem (talk) 18:06, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep as missing international articles in Swedish, 2, 3, Spanish, Turkish. Will defer to other editors on removal of POV bios (Tnooz, Technapex, etc.) Burroughs&#39;10 (talk) 12:44, 6 December 2016 (UTC)


 * The fact that it is mentioned on some other sites is not sufficient. Can you comment on them? Are they major, reliable Swedish/Turkish newspapers or something? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here  07:42, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep, answering the above question from Piotr. I've personally heard of El País and do not live in Span. That is Spain's largest newspaper (see Wikipedia article I linked to). The others also appear to be major publications after looking through Wikipedia: Dagens Industri (link), Aftonbladet (link, founded 1830), Svenska Dagbladet (link, founded 1884), Hürriyet (listed as major newspaper of Turkey) Ferrari250 (talk) 00:21, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep I'm fine with it at this point. I added the refs in places where machine translate could be fairly certain the ref was actually supporting the content. I left out Hürriyet, since it looks a bit click baity. TEN THINGS YOU NEVER KNEW YOU WANTED TO CLICK ON BUT DO! Timothy Joseph Wood  19:28, 15 December 2016 (UTC)
