Obvious G11 created by clear COI account, declined by DGG on the basis that it would require AfD. So again, here we are.

Sources presented in the article fail WP:CORPDEPTH badly, and a WP:BEFORE search turned up absolutely zip. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 22:29, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

neither corpdeath nor Before is relevant to G11. For asubject like this, I want others to hve a look also. DGG ( talk ) 06:11, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I guess I just don't see what puts an obvious piece of corporate spam in need of a full AfD when G11 exists for just such things. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 07:35, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The former Green Dot Charging company now appears to be trading as ConnectMyEV, and their conductive charging system appears to be similarly named as ConnectMyEV rather than CrossCharge. [1], so I have added another Find-Sources above. AllyD (talk) 06:31, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: A WP:SPA article by Evcharging describing a start-up company's proposition, with the text featuring superlatives about their product being the first and safest such product, maximising convenience, etc., without reliable 3rd party sources. Aside from routine listings, searches find a 2015 brief Q&A with the company founder [2] and a February 2018 announcement about the venture arm of Stanley Black & Decker taking a minority stake in the company [3] but I am not finding the independent coverage which would be needed (WP:PRODUCT / WP:NCORP) to sustain an article here, even if pruned of promotional wording.
