  • Comment: It is highly unlikely that a startup 'business' with no revenue, no funding, no staff, etc. would be notable. Come back when you have your millionth user.
    While awaiting response to the COI query, I'm pretty sure this is the founder writing about something they cooked up
    WP:NCORP, and most of the content is unreferenced.
    To avoid further reviewer time being expended on this, I am now rejecting rather than merely declining this draft. DoubleGrazing (talk
