Article by paid editor on totally non notable company. All the refs are simply notices of PR about it as a start up--it doesn't actually have any accomplishments as yet. That's what we call "not yet notable". We wouldn't make an article of a musician whose most important activity was raising money to make their first recording but had not yet done so, or an author who had gotten a grant to write their first book, but has not yet written it. Why should we do it for a company? DGG ( talk ) 02:27, 12 September 2015 (UTC)

• Speedy Delete Not enough coverage in independent, reliable sources to verify or sustian article. Fails Misplaced Pages's General Notability Guidelines and WP:NCORP. Sources are inadequate per WP:ORGDEPTH and WP:ORGIND. Jbh 15:18, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
• Delete - and preferably speedily. Purely promotional and obviously a case of someone 'mistakenly' believing that Misplaced Pages is another LinkedIn, not understanding the difference between an Encyclopedia and a comercial networking site or the Yellow Pages.. Whether it is part of the Orangemoody paid spamming campaign or not, DGG has said all that needs to be said already. Misplaced Pages cannot be allowed to be used for profit in this way at the abuse of the voluntary unpaid time that dedicated users spend building this encyclopedia which in spite of some biographies and articles about some companies, was never intended to be an additional business networking platform. Whether the text itself sounds promotional or not, the article is an advert and a plethora of sources has never been an automatic assumption of notability.Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 17:45, 13 September 2015 (UTC)

• Delete - Clearly not much for an article yet and there are no better sources thus no improvement. SwisterTwister talk 21:23, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
