The article fails WP:ORG . The majority of the information available comes from primary or promotional sources, such as the company own website and business announcements. The company short-lived existence (2016–2021) and limited scope as a subsidiary focused on FTTH infrastructure in only 29 cities do not demonstrate sufficient historical or societal impact to warrant a standalone article.

- No, article reliance on primary sources like the company website and promotional materials are failing to establish sufficient notability or societal impact. Nxcrypto Message 17:32, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

- Delete per ORG. Just to be clearer, all of the sources in the article are primary sources. A few such sources are okay when secondary sources verify that the company is notable. The biggest problem with finding new sources is that the company is defunct. I'm not sure why this page was created in the first place, but the new user might be mistaken about what we are. We are not an electronic version of a gazetteer. Bearian (talk) 10:49, 31 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete As per the research the company is genuine but lacks significant coverage in reputed media sources. The key issues are: Reliance on Primary Sources – Most references come from the company's website and promotional content. No substantial third-party sources verify its notability. This supports deletion due to insufficient independent verification of notability.
