An advertorially toned page on an unremarkable charity and social network. Significant RS coverage not found; what comes up is mostly self-promotions and executive quotes. Article is cited to passing mentions, routine news, WP:SPIP, and other sources otherwise not suitable for notability. Created by an account currently indef blocked for undisclosed paid editing; pls see Special:Contributions/Bigredlighthouse. K.e.coffman (talk) 23:13, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. The original author being blocked for promotion would not be an ongoing issue if the subject was notable and other editors had developed the article since its creation but, checking the history, I see that nobody else seems to care about this subject. The article is very close to being an orphan. The charity has only 8 alleged staff. Its website seems to suggest that its only activity is the operation of a very small specialist online social network. Even if we might be inclined to give a charity more benefit of the doubt than a for-profit company, this is not notable. --DanielRigal (talk) 01:02, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
