[edit] LUUP

LUUP (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

An m-commerce business that allows users to send and receive money via their mobile phone. An spa is being persistent with this article. Is it spam / non-notable? -- RHaworth 17:07, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

  • Comment. This is not spam! The company is one of the main players in the M-commerce industry Unclezoot 11:50, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete unless the article is cited with some independent sources. The company website alone is inadequate.--Appraiser 14:46, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete for failing WP:CORP. --Aarktica 22:12, 26 August 2007 (UTC) Nevermind... --Aarktica 20:10, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

  • Comment - media mentions have been added since the delete comments were made, including a significant feature in The Guardian. I am therefore relisting to enable editors to consider the new material. TerriersFan 23:14, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, seems to pass WP:RS now. Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 23:16, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep the guardian article meets notability to me. [1] [2] Carlosguitar 00:39, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as WP:SPAM per RHaworth. Article content limited to product description, but once this is stripped this away, the article fails to demonstrate notability criteria for companies per Aarktica . A case of an over-enthusiastic staff member failing to read the WP:CORP guidelines perhaps? --Gavin Collins 12:49, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - a search of news articles shows they are being written about, so meets WP:CORP with reliable sources. As for spamminess, that can be editted away. For example, the accolades section should probably be removed. -- Whpq 16:00, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
