This is an obvious advertisement for an App. I am somewhat unsure of the notability, however, some of the sources are misrepresented and at least one led me to a malicious website. SVTCobra 22:59, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• @SVTCobra: If something is an "obvious" advertisement it is eligible for WP:G11 so I suggest putting a speedy deletion nomination on it if you are certain it's spam or adjusting your rationale to say it is not obvious. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:06, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That's my dilemma. There are some legitimate sources, but the article is written as an advertisement. If it was the work of a single editor, I'd put it for G11. If notability was obvious, I'd request it be cleaned up. It's not naked spam, so no, I am not convinced I should change my wording. --SVTCobra 23:20, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@SVTCobra: I would also note that User:Chippadum who created the article might have undisclosed COI or paid editing given that it had promotional language even when it was first made. In any event, I believe G11 still applies even when a subject is notable, yet the entire article reads like an ad. No article is preferable to a blatant advertisement. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:27, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. (I arrived at this article through a winding road which took me through Commons but my starting point was WP:COIN in a discussion about an unrelated article.) You might be right about G11 and if you are sure, you can do it. I prefer the longer process. --SVTCobra 23:46, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment I reverted the article to an earlier version with less promotional content. I'll look at notability a bit later. Jumpytoo Talk 23:53, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Other than the articles based on press releases, I see no coverage of Fooya by secondary sources. Even going to the Fooya website and following the links they supplied didn't reveal any significant secondary coverage. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 23:40, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Per my source analysis based on the article reversion pre-revert:

TL;DR: Only source 20 could be significant coverage, conditional on being able to view the full study for an independence check. Jumpytoo Talk 05:54, 15 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
