Fails WP:NCORP. Refs are company blogs, patents, aquisitions, company documents, partnership and press-releases. Fails WP:SIRS, WP:CORPDEPTH, WP:ORGIND, WP:DEL4, WP:DEL14. scope_creep^Talk 00:11, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Examination of the references:

Ref 1 [1] Trademark. Non-rs.
Ref 2 [2] Use of the device to control home. Fails WP:NOT. Wikipedia is not a manual, although it does verifiy the products were popular in the hobbyist, DIY and craft folk.
Ref 3 404. Unable to locate.
Ref 4 [3] News about it closing down. Valid source.
Ref 5 [4] New about it being up. Valid source.
Ref 6 [5] Blog ref. Non-RS.
Ref 7 Patents. Non-RS.
Ref 8 [www.ocbj.com/news/2015/jan/06/insteon-partners-nest/] Fails WP:CORPDEPTH as press-release.
Ref 9 [6] Seems to be manual, describing the product. Product review.
Ref 10 [www.insteon.net/aboutInsteon.html] Primary. Non-RS.
Ref 11 [7] Passing mention.
Ref 12 [8] Press-release.
Ref 13 [9] Product review.
Ref 14 Product review.

Of the 14 refs, 2 product reviews, 2 press-releases, 4 Non-rs, 1 manual, 1 passing mention, 1 404, 1 WP:NOT fail and 2 secondary refs. A short article describing the company as a merge target with the valid refs would be ideal. scope_creep^Talk 11:22, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I'd pose that the strongest claim to notability here is that it was down for two months, leaving its few customers stranded, but this ends up only in Ars Technica and was not carried in any newspapers per ProQuest, indicating that few were concerned. Many, many product reviews exist, but nothing that would meet WP:CORPDEPTH. FalconK (talk) 09:58, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
