Draft:Laniakea Technologies (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This draft is sourced exclusively to paid promotional websites, press releases, and the like. It was repeatedly submitted without improving this issue, and now it has been resubmitted after rejection. jlwoodwa (talk) 05:48, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Response for Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Laniakea Technologies
Keep I respectfully oppose the deletion of Draft:Laniakea Technologies and advocate for its retention and improvement. While the draft has faced multiple rejections, its potential notability as a prominent app in Mexico, supported by reliable sources, warrants further development rather than deletion per WP:ATD.
Regional Notability in Mexico: Laniakea Technologies is described as a top app in Mexico with millions of users, indicating significant cultural and market impact in a country of over 130 million people. Wikipedia’s general notability guideline (WP:GNG) recognizes regional prominence, and the draft’s focus on a widely used Mexican app aligns with this. The repeated rejections may reflect a lack of familiarity with Mexico’s digital ecosystem, as suggested by concerns about reviewer bias. Deletion risks perpetuating systemic bias against topics (WP:BIAS).
Reliable Sources: The draft cites credible sources, including:
Apple: App Store data or developer profiles can verify the app’s existence, rankings, or download statistics, providing objective evidence of notability (WP:RS).
Dun & Bradstreet: As a globally recognized business data provider, a D-U-N-S profile or financial data for Laniakea Technologies establishes its legitimacy and operational scope (WP:ORG).

Sección Amarilla: A trusted Mexican business directory, akin to Yellow Pages, confirms local presence and relevance, particularly in Mexico’s market.
While the nomination cites reliance on “paid promotional websites” and “press releases,” these authoritative sources suggest the draft is not exclusively promotional. Inadequate sources can be removed or supplemented with independent coverage (e.g., Mexican tech news from El Universal or Reforma) rather than deleting the draft.
Potential for Improvement: The draft’s resubmission after rejection demonstrates the creator’s commitment to addressing issues. Wikipedia encourages editing over deletion when a topic has potential notability (WP:IMPERFECT). With editorial support, such as from Wikipedia:WikiProject Business or Wikipedia:WikiProject Mexico, the draft can meet Wikipedia’s standards by refining sources and emphasizing Laniakea’s verifiable impact.
I propose retaining the draft and allowing time for improvement, potentially with a mentor from Wikipedia:WikiProject Business or Wikipedia:WikiProject Mexico to guide sourcing and neutrality. Deletion would prematurely dismiss a topic with clear regional significance and verifiable references.

  • That's actually twice resubmitted after rejection now. Delete as tendentiously resubmitted corpspam. SK2242 (talk) 22:11, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Tendentious resubmission is one of the criteria under which drafts are deleted by the MfD process. It has been rejected. It might be left to wither on the G13 vine, of course, but it might be kinder to delete it. This would allow the creating editor to start fro scratch without being tempted to reuse either references or verbiage. 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 00:04, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I urge editors to stop spreading falsehoods and fallacies about ME and Draft:Laniakea Technologies and Draft:Valentina Ferragni. @SK2242: Your claims of “AI garbage” and “corpspam” are baseless ad hominem attacks, targeting my contributions rather than engaging with the draft’s merits. Labeling it “tendentiously resubmitted” misrepresents the creator’s efforts to improve a draft with reliable sources like Apple and app stores, Dun & Bradstreet, and Sección Amarilla, which demonstrate notability in Mexico’s app market. @Timtrent: Deletion for “tendentious resubmission” ignores WP:IMPERFECT, which favors improvement over deletion for potentially notable topics. The draft’s regional significance and verifiable references deserve refinement, not dismissal. Please address the draft’s content, not my persona.

  • Delete - Resubmitting a draft after it is rejected is not collaborative, and is tendentious. The topic may be notable. Deletion of the draft will not salt the title. The current draft is a dump at a dead end. The WP:IMPERFECT policy that the author cites refers to collaborative editing, and resubmission of a rejected draft is not collaborative. If the author wants to be collaborative, they can start over. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:38, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Laniakea tv is already notable. As a decentralized software ecosystem with traceable impact, growing adoption, and references across the internet—including Apple, one of the highest authority domains globally—deleting its draft undermines Wikipedia’s role as a living almanac of technological innovation. Laniakea software deserves preservation—not deletion—especially while credible references continue to surface. Let the draft stand and evolve, not be prematurely erased.

  • Keep, Meh, Weak Delete, Userfy , concerns have been noted, but they do not justify deletion at this stage. The draft is active, the editor has indicated they are still working on it, and even Wikipedia acknowledges that "editing what's already written is easier". This is not abandoned content; it's a live, evolving draft with potential notability and references from highest-authority domains like Apple.
Per NPOV policy, neutrality issues can be addressed through collaborative editing—not deletion. If neutrality remains a concern, the page can simply be userfied so the editor can continue refining it without disruption. Deletion is unnecessary and premature. Let it improve, not disappear. Bhcdjjdsh (talk) 16:56, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]


  • Weak Delete Drafts should be assessed for notability through the AfC process, not MfD. There are no serious BLP violations here—cited content, even if imperfect, is part of a work-in-progress. This is clearly a draft, not a finished article, and the appropriate path is to allow the creator to refine it, not delete it prematurely. Let them work without unnecessary disruption.
