Contested deletion

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because...

This company is notable, and has been repeatedly in the news.

The surveys from inside company employees of various tech companies are repeatedly in the news. [10] [11] [12] [13] [14]

Let me also take offense with describing my good faith starting of a missing Wikipedia entry as willing to promote any company. Anyone can see my editing history. I've started various entries and edited lots of entries. Taking me for a low life promoter of this company is ridiculous. I assume this is a unchecked fast suspicion without any checking. But it's rather annoying to be accused such Jazi Zilber (talk) 19:33, 15 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Don't mistake my intent, my tagging of the article for speedy deletion is in no way meant to be an attack on your character. That being said, it is your prerogative as an editor to work to the best of your ability to create an article that meets Wikipedia's criteria. This must always be considered before officially creating an article. In my opinion, the article as it stands remains too promotional towards the subject company. In this discussion you have cited source that could aid the article in passing the G11 criteria. I would recommend you continue to improve the article, and if an uninvolved third party editor agrees with your point to remove the speedy deletion tag, I wont object.--SamHolt6 (talk) 20:00, 15 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. This offence thing is stupid of me, of course....

As for quality issues, my view is that if a subject deserves an entry, I had rather start off with a stub version of a skeleton. And let it develop from there, which usually works out well. Especially if I am coming back later myself ;) Jazi Zilber (talk) 20:16, 15 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
