Most of the references are instagram links and the others are mostly primary sources. It doesn't look like there's any SIGCOV but someone more familiar with Kuwaiti sources might have better luck. BuySomeApples (talk) 21:03, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Nothing that meets WP:ORGCRIT available in my search. If someone can present non-English references, I would be happy to take a look. --CNMall41 (talk) 19:48, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@BuySomeApples: Thank you for starting the discussion. I would like to respectfully argue that **Elevated Entertainment** meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline (GNG) based on the following points:

1. **Long Operational History** – The company was established in 1991 and has remained active for over three decades, managing more than 70 entertainment venues across Kuwait and the GCC. This sustained presence contributes to its regional significance.

2. **Significant Coverage** – The company has received coverage in reliable sources, including: * *Al-Anba Newspaper* (one of Kuwait’s major Arabic-language newspapers), which highlighted their role in public recreation initiatives: [1](https://www.alanba.com.kw/1282036) * Mentions in regional event platforms and tourism initiatives showcasing their “Big Bounce Arabia” project — a large-scale mobile inflatable attraction recognized across multiple Gulf cities.

3. **Clear Differentiation** – Elevated Entertainment is not a minor or local-only business. Their ventures, especially Big Bounce Arabia and Fun Quest, have gained notable regional recognition, serving thousands of visitors per event.

4. **Improvements Made** – The article has been rewritten to meet encyclopedic standards: it now features a neutral tone, structured format, and includes references to external coverage. The promotional language has been removed, and unsourced claims trimmed.

5. **Potential for Expansion** – There is growing coverage of their projects in Arabic-language media and tourism sectors, which can be further integrated into the article.

Therefore, I believe the article is worthy of retention and further development rather than deletion. I welcome any suggestions for improving the article further. LoransofA (talk) 08:55, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not use AI to generate responses in deletion discussions. They are unhelpful. Your response only has one point towards notability (significant coverage), but also fails to address how that significant coverage meets WP:ORGCRIT. --CNMall41 (talk) 20:38, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@LoransofA: It doesn't look like the article you linked mentions Elevated Entertainment anywhere. You would need to find sources that talk about the company specifically so that they meet these policies: WP:Significant coverage. BuySomeApples (talk) 22:07, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your response.

The company mentioned in the article is Big Bounce Arabia, which is owned by Elevated.

I wasn’t able to find a detailed article specifically about Elevated, but there are a few articles about its subsidiaries, such as Big Bounce, as I mentioned earlier, and Fun Quest.

Would it be possible for me to contact the company and request a legal document confirming its ownership of both subsidiaries?

This ownership is also stated on their official website.

You basically summarized why this does not meet notability unfortunately. If there are no references that are detailed about Elevated, and we are simply using a legal document (primary source and likely WP:OR), then there are no sources that meet WP:ORGCRIT which is the requirement to show notability for companies. --CNMall41 (talk) 17:47, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
