The subject of the article does not meet the criteria for notability per WP:N. No significant coverage from reliable sources that are independent of the subject.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nv8200p (talk • contribs) 22:00, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

• Merge to MasterCard and rewrite with secondary sources. MYPlash was the subject of some non-trivial press coverage when it launched in 2005 (e.g., FOXNews, E!, UPI, The Denver Post), though many of the articles were puff pieces. It also received passing coverage in The New York Times as part of a larger trend in teenage shopping [1]. --Muchness 00:04, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
• Merge While this is notable now, I really do not think this advertising technique has much "historic notability" Corpx 01:41, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
• Strong Keep Extremely (at least commercially) notable — Ian Lee (Talk) 00:17, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Not much published after release so there are no sources, but you'll just have to trust me. It was a huge success. — Ian Lee (Talk) 01:58, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Then your claim fails WP:V. -Nv8200p talk 14:16, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
