My extensive PROD was boldly removed with the thin basis of adding a source but my concerns were staunchly listed and clear in that, not only was this a company-initiated article, it contains anything and everything a company would want to say to advertise its company and, as we know, what the company wants and what an encyclopedia article should have never meet as they are entirely different states of mind and philosophies, and will never compromise because they are not easy matters and they never will be since advertising and non-PR are completely different. All sources are, of course, simply trivial and unconvincing PR and none of it comes to confidently substantiate convincing notability; I still confirm my PROD because they are genuine concerns and this should never have been accepted from AfC because of these advertising campaign concerns.

- leaning delete all coverage in soi-disant RSes appears to be part of promotional pushes (GNews also brings up the matching press releases). They work hard at promotion, but nobody seems to have actually found them newsworthy without the company pushing for coverage - David Gerard (talk) 10:10, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete publicity puff piece for company, supported by nothing better than minor mentions. No hint of notability. Chiswick Chap (talk) 21:16, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
