Fails WP:NCORP. This company was briefly covered by some reliable sources when its name was confused with Snap Inc.'s during their IPO in 2017 [1] [2] [3], and there was no WP:SUSTAINED coverage after that. The brief WP:TECHCRUNCH puff-piece isn't reliable, and the other sources are not independent. Maybe this article would merit a passing mention in the Snap Inc. page. This page was previously deleted in 2006, then it was recreated by a blocked sock in 2014 and then edited by multiple other socks after that. Badbluebus (talk) 03:34, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - agree this fails WP:NCORP, no significant coverage, edit history doesn't inspire confidence. Void if removed (talk) 11:14, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I don't see the 2017 brief confusion of this firm's Snap Interactive name with Snap Inc as appropriate for a mention on the Snap Inc. page. However as this firm is now Paltalk Inc and there is a longstanding page at Paltalk, that may provide an ATD target? AllyD (talk) 08:50, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or redirect to Paltalk: The Peerstream site now simply redirects to the Paltalk investor site and I am not seeing mention of Peerstream as a continuing product (though the main Paltalk site's Products link attempts a redirect to Peerstream). Whether as a company or a product, I don't see Peerstream as having attained notability, but a redirect could be a history-preserving ATD. AllyD (talk) 08:47, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Reads like WP:PROMO for their software products. The drawn-out history behind this article's past removals is also inculpatory. If someone has a solid case for a merge I see no problem with that, but if it were solely me I'd go with a deletion in these circumstances.
