- Delete, this looked promising, but it's in Winnipeg [1]. No sourcing found for this makerspace in Chicago. Oaktree b ( talk) 19:43, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- Keep. I think the coverage from the
American Bar Association Journal,
Columbia Chronicle, Time Out Chicago,
Gapers Block,
Northwestern University. This might help as well:

- I can see where you're coming from here, but the sources still generally aren't any good. The ABA Journal source is just a brief mention about one of the article's main subjects having spent time with the company. Same thing goes for the Northwestern article. The other sources you mention seem to lack credibility or just noteworthiness in general. Dawnbails ( talk) 20:32, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

- Delete This is a company/organization therefore GNG/ WP:NCORP criteria apply. Sourcing fails to meet the criteria for establishing notability. The Avondale article is a blog so fails WP:RS and has no " Independent Content" since it relies entirely on information provided by the company and/or people closely associated with it. Similar issues arise with most of the other references, relying on information provided by the company or people closely associated with the company, failing WP:ORGIND. The remaining are brief mentions with insufficient in-depth information about the company to meet WP:CORPDEPTH. HighKing ++ 13:04, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
