[edit] TuneCore

Unsourced advertising for non-notable sub-brand Yomangani 14:52, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

• Disagree: Article is sourced, and refers to a newsworthy independent company providing a unique service. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.129.24.75 (talk • contribs)

There are no sources: there are external links to the company's own website and a non-notable podcasting site. It does not met WP:CORP. Yomangani 23:25, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Company has been reported about by SPIN Magazine, ABC News, and Pitchforkmedia.com, thus meeting WP:CORP. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.129.24.75 (talk • contribs)

In order for it to meet WP:CORP it has to meet WP:V - there are no citations for the claims that has been featured in any of those publications apart from the one I added (which is hardly notable) or for statements such as "TuneCore's first customer was Frank Black, lead singer of The Pixies."

Direct links to notable outside articles in major publications and a video segment on ABC News profiling the company are evident on this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.129.24.75 (talk • contribs)

I added them, but the article(s) are not from major publications:Sometimes a statement can only be found in a publication of dubious reliability, such as a tabloid newspaper...As a rule of thumb, sources of dubious reliability should only be used in articles about themselves (from WP:V). I make that one web article and a video clip, together with a lot of uncited WP:OR. Please sign your comments with ~~~~ by the way Yomangani 16:15, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

• Disagree- this article is sourced and is newsworthy regarding a novel business model.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.15.119.120 (talk • contribs)
• Weak Keep. A close call, but I believe the article, as now cited, barely passes WP:CORP and WP:V. --Satori Son 19:55, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Meets WP:CORP, no other problems I can see. Mangojuice^talk 13:37, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
