Seeing as it was already nominated for deletion, it appears there are editors who believe(d) this page is substantial. However, looking at the sources, about half of them are links to the company's own websites, some of which are just free Blogspot addresses. The remaining refs are all from around 2001-2003 covering essentially the same event (the partial purchase of Citywire by Reuters). Most of the page was constructed by an IP editor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/83.217.101.178 who existed solely to create this page (and has since been dynamically reassigned).

The articles makes claims of Citywire being "objective" and "unbiased" which are in and of themselves subjective and biased without the needed citations. I'd argue that the subject is notable, but all of the content dependent on citations straight from the PR company should be taken down. I haven't edited yet, and was hoping some more experienced editors might chime in first. Jergling (talk) 15:19, 5 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
