I am employed by Artificial Solutions, the creator of Lyra (Virtual Assistant), (formerly Indigo (Virtual Assistant)). Our company is in agreement to remove traces of the name "Indigo" online where we are able to do so. As this article will not have any recent links to the name Lyra, and as we are obligated to remove the "Indigo" name, I propose that this page be deleted. Because the page is unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic, I suggest it be deleted.Justin.mota (talk) 13:21, 9 August 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Justin.mota (talk • contribs) 13:12, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Per not agreeing with any of the above. see: http://www.hello-indigo.com/ where it clearly was called indigo before, a fact which will forever be a fact. also see: http://www.androidauthority.com/best-personal-assistant-apps-android-667299/ and https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2013/06/review-indigo-brings-siri-like-conversation-to-the-android-platform/ and https://en.softonic.com/downloads/indigo-virtual-assistant. These are sufficient references to prove the notability of the article and justify it being kept. The page is a stub, and does need improvement, I suggest you ask someone to improve it, perhaps you could get the article expanded by publishing some new information on a primary source, or do a press event to get coverage in a reliable source. This would allow editors to improve the article. If the article was better written, your company might not feel the need for it to be deleted. Please also read: WP:CONFLICT and Wikipedia:No legal threats to understand how you can legitimately influence the article.

I am a Lawyer and unlike some, I do understand that you have legal obligations to conform to. In this situation you can legitimately say that this is a online reference you cannot remove, since even if the page is 'deleted', it will still be stored on Wikipedias servers and published anew on Deletionpedia (not affiliated to wikipedia). as you are no doubt aware, you can have the google search link to this page removed from google searches by google on request (write to google for this). Searches for 'lyra virtual assistant' and 'indigo virtual assistant' provide plenty of links.

You can ask more questions on my talk page. A Guy into Books (talk) 14:12, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep based solely on provided reviews of original Indigo app. I found nothing better to shore up notability under the Indigo name, and absolutely nothing which covers the app under the Lyra name. But the app does (barely) meet the notability standards. Justin.mota: While you may want or need to remove mention of the Indigo name from your web site or advertising for marketing and/or legal reasons, you can't undo the app's notability under whatever name, and the former name is a verifiable fact which rightly belongs in an encyclopedia article on the subject. --Finngall ^talk 14:47, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
