Promotion for non-notable company, article by single-purpose user. 0 gnews hits and I have been unable to find any significant third-party coverage that would indicate the subject passes WP:GNG. Haakon (talk) 19:57, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep, company is a legitimate CDN like Limelight, Edgecast, Akamai. There are numours blog posts about NetDNA as well as its sister company MaxCDN. Both of which have twitter accounts with notable reviews. There are also numerous private blog posts by idenendent contributors, like myself as well as customer testimonials cdnadvisor (talk) 10 March 2010 (UTC) — cndadvisor (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- The article needs to cite sources. Can you give some URLs the notable reviews? My searches has yielded none. Haakon (talk) 21:20, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. None of the sources thrown at this article are reliable. Its press release after press release. The article therefore falls well short of notability, which requires significant coverage in reliable sources. The reliable part is critical because when our articles can only cite press releases, wikipedia essentially becomes a promotional tool rather than an encyclopaedia. --Mkativerata (talk) 23:12, 13 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
