• File:Symbol delete vote.svg Delete Promotional article, non-notable. — FR 05:22, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
• File:Symbol delete vote.svg Delete Promotional. The single major source citation, from Time Magazine, doesn't demonstrate impact on the industry but rather as an example of one young person starting out in the field. -- Deborahjay (talk) 18:33, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
• File:Symbol delete vote.svg Delete Clearly promotional and clearly not notable. Coverage is extremely poor, but has been made to look better than it is by the article's creator who is clearly not a brand new editor. Observe their very first edit [1]. A complete article with perfectly formatted references and an infobox is a dead giveaway of paid editing. The article's creator was very cagey with the references, three of them (Time, Entrepreneur, and MY CENTRAL JERSEY) are by the same author, Brian Roberts, who is a freelance promotional writer [2]. But he is only stated as the author of the Entrepreneur reference. He is not on the editorial staff of any of these publications and the Time "article" is clearly marked as an opinion piece. There is a similar promotional campaign going on at English Wikipedia. In fact, I am about to nominate the article on his company there (en:Profound Aesthetic) for deletion.

• File:Symbol delete vote.svg Delete As noted, it seems to be quite promotional. Desertborn (talk) 12:54, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

This request is due to close on 05:19, 20 June 2019 (UTC), seven days after it was filed, although it may be closed earlier at the discretion of an administrator.
