No evidence of any notability. Plenty of evidence of marketing speak. Not a single useful reference to support notability. Searches yield the same paucity of sources/ Fails WP:GNG Velella ^{Velella Talk} 14:31, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- - Hi Velella,

I've received your message about the DriveWorks page being up for deletion due to marketing speak. Apologies, I'm new to editing Wikipedia (If you check my account it was only set up last week). I read your guide about how to edit as I wanted to update the page to include the new edition of our software in the 'editions' list. I noticed that the description of what DriveWorks is wasn't very clear so I copied a couple of paragraphs over from our website to try and give a better description of what the software does - purely to be informative and not to try and market the software. I didn't realise it would be classed as marketing speak or that it needed to have references / evidence of notability. I have removed the bits I copied over and put the page back to how it was before. My apologies, I will re-read your guide to give me a better idea of how to correctly edit a Wikipedia entry so I can include the correct types of content. I will wait to hear from you before I edit the page again. Sorry about this. I hope I have formatted this reply correctly. Danielle DanielleDriveWorks (talk) 15:22, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: A WP:SPA WP:COI article consisting of material more suited to a company website. I added one bylined reference but it amounts to a passing mention merely verifying a statement in the article. Fails WP:NSOFT, WP:PRODUCT, WP:GNG. AllyD (talk) 07:01, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
