The article written by SPA Ralum23 reads like an advertorial and has all the hallmarks of a salaried or commissioned work created in deliberate anticipation of the product launch. The numerous routine reports used as sources do not afford notability to a start-up that hasn't even started up. In the words of guideline WP:SPAM: 'advertisements masquerading as articles' Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 23:19, 9 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Note: The previous deletion was for a hoax, 12 years ago. The page name is a coincidence and is completely unrelated. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 23:56, 9 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom and per WP:NOT. Dysklyver 23:54, 9 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. It claims it's in beta. No coverage other than press releases so far. Clarityfiend (talk) 00:29, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete there is nothing notable about this company; nothing to learn from that goes toward our mission of providing readers with accepted knowledge. This is because there is a lack of independent sources with substantial of the company. This is just a directory entry with factoids to promote the company.

  • Delete per above. And run a CU on the creator who is obviously not a new account and an undisclosed paid editor. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 00:51, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Per nominator. The article's current references makes the subject appear to be covered in reliable sources but is only mentioned in passing. Meatsgains (talk) 02:19, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • information Administrator note A history merge from Draft:Brabble was performed after this AfD started - the final presentation is unchanged. — xaosflux Talk 03:03, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete excluded by WP:NOTSPAM, as the nomination makes clear. Also not notable to boot. TonyBallioni (talk) 03:51, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete after doing some probably misguided cleanup, it's apparent to me this is unsalvageable and at best a WP:TOOSOON. Agree that this has all the classic hallmarks of a paid job against ToS. ☆ Bri (talk) 04:12, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
