Neumob article[edit]

Hello, just read your Neumob article. I'm concerned that it's written in a promotional style with a lot of assertions ('they say' this technology will do this etc). I don't think the company meets the criteria for notability for a company, like sustained coverage in reliable news sources.

In addition, I'm sorry but the logo you've uploaded can't be uploaded the way you did it - that's for photos you took or where copyright has expired. You upload company logo images here. Blythwood (talk) 22:38, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm happy to make changes to this one to remove assertions and promotional style, as well as the logo I uploaded. I do believe the company meets the criteria for notability, what with 2 articles on its technology in TechCrunch:

...as well as several other pieces in different sources:

I hope you'll consider allowing me to make the edits; if not, the deletion is fine. BeerSamizdat (talk) 23:59, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

OK. If you want to keep the article, you'll probably want to add those as citations (though they're still a bit reprint-a-press-release-ish which isn't ideal-see Paul Graham on this). Just to be clear: I'm just some random person who looks at new Wikipedia articles! If you want the article to be kept, it needs to stand on cited material.
