Woojer

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

There's only some coverage, mostly puff pieces on their product. Also this is an obvious promotional article - WP:NOTPROMO (WP:DEL14) Galobtter (pingó mió) 08:47, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * To add: puff in the article: Woojer has been granted patents for their small and powerful haptic actuator. and all I can find is pieces written by curated blogs - aka Forbes Contributor - or based mostly off press releases and what the creators say.

 * Keep - The company has been the subject at several technology's media outlets and appears to have enough notability. The only problem is the article's style, which seems more like an advertisement than a Wikipedia article. I deleted all the references to products and patents and tried to change the style for something more encyclopedic. The article needs improvement and not deletion.--SirEdimon (talk) 22:46, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
 * First of all, the media outlets only talk about the product not the company. And the reason it is promotional is because the articles on the product contain only what the company describes the product as and are based on what they say - thus failing WP:ORGIND Galobtter (pingó mió) 05:28, 16 December 2017 (UTC)
 * I disagree. Several media outlets make reference to the company and its founders.
 * Delete - This violates WP:NCORP and WP:NOTPROMO as mentioned above. Not every company with a successful Kickstarter campaign deserves a Wikipedia article. There's a lot of promises, not enough reliable sources indicating lasting notability. Shelbystripes (talk) 05:24, 16 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete -- WP:TOOSOON and fails WP:CORPDEPTH; just an unremarkable startup going about its business. Clearly not encyclopedically relevant just yet; sources are routine announcements, WP:SPIP or otherwise not suitable for notability. K.e.coffman (talk) 03:17, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Promotional, fails WP:SPIP. Also, no indications of notability, references are based on company announcements and fail WP:CORPDEPTH and/or WP:ORGIND. -- HighKing ++ 13:47, 27 December 2017 (UTC)
