Cannot find WP:SIGCOV to establish WP:COMPANY, none such provided in the article and my googling does not turn up any seefooddiet (talk) 13:47, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with ArcGIS since Urban is a product within Esri's ArcGIS line. Not sure if WP:COMPANY applies here since it's a product and not a company, but agree that this should be deleted due to poor sourcing. Artwhitemaster (talk) 17:24, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Found a decent scholarly source here [1], still looking for other sources before I cast a !vote. Toadspike [Talk] 10:35, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Also found [2], which has a brief description of ArcGIS Urban. All other hits on Google Scholar appear to be false positives. Toadspike [Talk] 10:40, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

[3] has some coverage but might be based entirely on press releases, I'm not sure. [4] might be better. There are some passing mentions elsewhere, which I won't bother to list.

I support a merge to ArcGIS – a case could be made for notability, but the article doesn't have much detail anyways, so a standalone page doesn't make sense to me. Toadspike [Talk] 10:47, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi all! I'm the user who created the page, and I'm still relatively new at making pages (mostly did small edits until now). Full disclosure: I work as a software engineer on this product (ArcGIS Urban), and I wasn't exactly familiar with the Wikipedia notability test - a learning experience for me! Since I saw the "nominated this article for deletion" banner, I haven't made more edits, but maybe it would help if I added more references and expanded the article? In the end I will defer to the experts on whether the page needs to be kept/merged/etc. CJJ2501 (talk) 11:08, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the reply! Please also keep in mind WP:COI; on Wikipedia working on topics you have a paid relationship to comes with significant caveats.

Regardless of COI, you could try to identify more reliable sources (namely third party mainstream news coverage) but I've done some looking and am a bit skeptical it would pass notability. seefooddiet (talk) 12:55, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
