- Second relist rationale. I normally close non-BLP articles without participation for 2 weeks as "no consensus" but I suspect Guy would rather it be relisted. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:07, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I created a LearnVest page because it is a notable company that has received extensive press. In the page's current state, perhaps the reliance on primary sources is too heavy. However, instead of deletion, I would like to request that it be updated to reflect more recent sources (such as the New York Times and Fortune).

- LearnVest suffices as a credible and notable personal finance resource for women. The website has already received extensive media attention and does not need additional advertising through Wikipedia; rather, the page educates the public on the information based and educational resource. I would agree that the page should be updated to reflect more recent sources rather than be deleted. ccf920 (talk) 14:00, 20 April 2010 (UTC) — ccf920 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

- Delete Fails WP:GNG and WP:CORP. While gnews turns up mentions, none of them appear to amount to significant coverage, I only see press releases and passing mentions. VernoWhitney (talk) 00:18, 24 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
