delete unambiguous promo, fails WP:NORG, the listed awards are insignificant/nottotable. Staszek Lem (talk) 21:54, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Arthistorian1977: We added also independent sources - book and academic article.

@Staszek Lem: Listonic is an established and well-rated app that has been available to the public for the last 9 years. For more information, please find us on Google Play and Apple App Store, or visit our website www.listonic.com. As we're an established company with a product that has a worldwide reach, we think that we would benefit from a presence on Wikipedia in English, alongside our listing on the Polish version of the website which has already been accepted by Wikipedia (https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Listonic)." ````Kart8989

@Staszek Lem: It seems it's been covered in scientific publications https://scholar.google.pl/scholar?start=0&q=listonic&hl=en&as_sdt=0,5 quite often. As it's used in serious articles, not only PR ones, and it's made for worldwide audience, I think readers would benefit from more info about about it here. Also, the style of writing is ok, doesn't sound salesy ````Alemale — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alamale (talk • contribs) 10:32, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Both Kart8989 and Alamale are single-purpose accounts with likely conflicts of interest. The article itself reads very much like an advertisement, padded with non-notable awards. I haven't reviewed the sources completely, but the ones I've looked at are either unreliable or do not cover the app in-depth. I'm holding off on a !vote for now, but I'm pretty sure this will fail WP:NCORP. – Teratix ₵ 07:24, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
