"property search real estate": no website of or near this name exists
a reputable commercial enterprise that prints tickets, but
TinEye can find no images of these ticket designs outside the designcontest•com website
a "miracle pain spray" manufacturer, but again TinEye finds no images of the spray-can design outside the designcontest•com website
there appears to be no business of or near the name "Lightning Rods C.C." in Houston TX, nor in the rest of the world
[7]https://www.designcontest.ru/////: the website in Russian. While this may serve as evidence that the business has a website in Russian, this does not assist the claim of notability.
I removed all unuseles primary source and added sources confirming the popularity, as well as examples of cooperation with well known companies. I hope this time will be no claim. :) --

Add more independent reliable sources. Now it must have significant coverage.

Don't need the logos inside of the encyclopedic article, it's not a resume (and they're copyright, see the files' pages on Commons). Significant coverage is sort-of ok but you may want to focus more on the relationship of the subject with outside world which the outside world itself initiated — such as interest of press in its work, or user reception. (Eg. like
this or
that).

I removed logos examples. And soon will try add topics like you propouse.

Great! Hopefully whoever handles this request doesn't close it too soon; I'm not familiar with the timeline (it could be anything from one week, which ends on the 20th).

The Wisdom of Crowds by James Surowiecki - this book describes the basic principles and laws of any crowdsourcing business, and this company as well. So I left.
Website in Russian. While this may serve as evidence that the business has a website in Russian - so I lest it.

Strong delete Appreciate the review of sources by
Shirt58. Page appears to be advertising -
WP:NOTADVERTISING and fails notability requirements per
WP:GNG and
WP:CORP. To me, the number of non-independent sources suggests that the editor is trying to
WP:MASK the lack of notability.

Review of sources by
Shirt58 means absolutely nothing, because all sources have been redone, and what you say - it means that you did not even check anything. You don`t gives reasons for point of view - it means that your opinion is not objectively.

Happy to expand. For an organization to be notable and merit inclusion in WP
requires that "it has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not sufficient to establish notability." I've looked at all the sources cited right now. Citations like the BBB or press releases aren't reliable for this purpose - the BBB provides pages on a massive number of businesses in American and isn't "coverage", and press releases aren't independent. Other citations are blog posts or incidental mentions, not coverage of the corporation itself, which is what the policy requires. The only thing approaching coverage is the post on fusible.com about the domain selling for $40,000, but again, this isn't coverage of the organization itself, it's incidental coverage. As the
WP:CORPDEPTH says, "brief announcements of mergers or sales of part of the business" aren't sufficient. These sources don't meet the requirements of
WP:NOTRELIABLE. I've done my own searching, and I simply am coming up with nothing about this organization. Again, WP is not
WP:PROMO, and right now this page doesn't seem to support inclusion. That's my thinking, but happy to hear your response on this and assist on article if you feel I am wrong.

Thank you for your response. I agree with you on sources as BBB. But if you take the other pages on the same topic, which for many years in the project such as:
75B,
8vo,
AdamsMorioka,
Airside,
Mars Design,
AirSpace Studio and
other. I created it's certainly not worse. On many of them I found nothing. They all must be delete in this way. But they srill here in some reason.
I believe that such sources as Fusible.com, PRweb.com, Virtual-Strategy Magazine and Mashable.com can provide the necessary coverage. Perhaps the text may look like
WP:PROMO - but if you help me, I remade it in neutral. And I still would like to try to modify the article so that she would not have been removed as well. Do I have a chance?

Sandbox it into a draft somewhere not indexed by search engines for a few weeks. I really appreciate the author being responsive.

WP:TONE and

Anything but keep' Sadly, I don't believe that the non-neutral wording issues are behind us here, and that's going to take some time to resolve if the author believes, as she or he indicates above, that PRweb might be a useful source. I'm open to putting this into a draft until it can pass AfC or the like, particularly as the author seems to be working in good faith to improve things, but it is a hard task. --

Delete Unfortunately, the ed. is correct that some of their other work also has similar problems. In fact, so do at least have the articles in the category. I've listed 2 or 3 of the very worst for speedy, and tried to reduce the promotionalism of some of those that appear salvageable and clearly notable. That leaves a large group in the middle that will need to be dealt with. As others have noticed in various places, it must be more than a coincidence that articles of firms in the advertising and PR industries tend themselves to be rather promotional. DGG (
