contains what the company says about itself, not the journalism itself, see: "Though the app has an easy-to-use graphic interface, its complexity lies in the logistics of transferring the credit from person to person in exchange for money. Zeek serves as the connection between the two parties, in place of a face-to-face meeting"...."The company is beginning with a pilot in Israel, with hopes of entering additional markets, such as Asia, Latin America, and Europe, in the future"...."In many cases, consumers find pursuing a refund more trouble than it’s worth, so they take the line of least resistance – settling for a credit, in the hope that they will find something else they want from the same store. But for those who can’t, Zeek has a solution – a platform that lets buyers, sellers, and barterers of store credits to find each other, no matter where they are"...."While Zeek is clearly a made-in-Israel app – it could have evolved only in a country where refunds are not a matter of course – the app is useful abroad as well. Zeek has tens of thousands of users in Israel, as well as in Europe and the US, where it is used to buy and sell gift certificates. The ability to break certificates into smaller chunks is a useful one for users abroad, according to Zeek. Plus, the fact that it’s all cloud-based makes Zeek convenient and user-friendly. “When you sell the gift vouchers or store credits, all you have to do is send it to us,” the company says. “Once it is received and approved, you will be contacted and we will forward you the money in the most convenient way: either check, PayPal or directly to your bank account. If you purchase a store credit or voucher, this item will be sent to you by mail.”...."If you’ve ever received a gift voucher for a store you rarely or never shop in, then Zeek could prove useful. The marketplace and mobile app lets you buy and sell unwanted store credit, including gift vouchers, credit notes, gift cards and e-vouchers. The seller gets to offload credit that is of no use or before it expires, and the buyer gets to purchase credit at a significant discount. Meanwhile, Zeeks take a commission on each transaction. Win-win-win, you might say"...."Originally launched out of Tel Aviv in 2014, Zeek has since expanded to the U.K., which is now a key market for the startup and part of the reason for today’s announced fund-raise. The new capital will be used to consolidate its position in the U.K. and for further international expansion. This will include a hiring drive as Zeek plans to increase headcount in order to accelerate that growth"...."The company’s app and marketplace lets you trade unwanted store credit, including gift vouchers, credit notes, gift cards and e-vouchers. The seller gets to offload credit that is of no use or before it expires, and the buyer gets to purchase credit at a significant discount"....In turn, Zeek takes a commission on each transaction. It’s a model identical to extremely well-funded U.S. startup Raise, which closed a $ 56 million round of Series B funding early last year, putting Zeek’s bank balance into sharp contrast"...."Fresh off a $ 9.5 million Series B funding round, Zeek is planning on expanding beyond its Israeli headquarters and moving into Europe. The company already has a presence in the U.K. — it’s been there since December 2014 — and it now looks as though demand and additional capital will be taking this gift card-specific marketplace to new horizons"....Zeek, an Israeli app company for unwanted store credit, lets you sell store credit (those receipts you get when you return an item that usually ends up getting washed in the laundry), gift cards and e-vouchers below face value. Zeek recently announced that it has raised $ 3 million from....". None of that was actual journalism efforts but instead actually the company supplying its own information "coated" as news (none of that came close at all for significance, substance or of course "news"), once we accept that at any and all costs, we're an advertising website.
2466:, all of the essence of PR has in fact stayed and has actually become worse now that the PR sources listed. There is no amount of copyediting that fixes an article when its core and basis is advertising and that alone, because we are essentially simply fashioning it into something either the same or worse. Now, the last article listed contains noticeable amounts of interviews, such as beginning paragraphs, "Mr Eral admits", "Mr Eral saw", "Mr Eral talks about..." and this continues as the interview continues itself, and the information about some other matters about business school and education, the article simply contains a few other paragraphs until it ends, so that was hardly journalism at all, if a large amount was simply an interview (the last sets of paragraphs, for example, are all either interviews or company-supplied information, nothing actually independent). What still says, as my analyses had shown before above, is that this is clearly a company intent with finding and establishing any platforms it can obtain and use as advertising and PR, and it shows when a large amount of "news" are simply either interviews or company-supplied information such as the background of company-involved fundings and finances. Also, it's quite unlikely that any other amount of news would actually help, especially given what I have clearly stated above which was the concerns of using whatever news, because of the severity of 2458:, so that shows the peculiar similarities in the past 2 articles I've examined, showing the essence of interviewed information also, the fact how carefully crafted the article is. Now, the next article is also as blatant in that it noticeably contains interviewed information, and of course focuses only largely with what the company's current status is about funding and finances, it goes to say "Meanwhile, Zeek co-founder and CEO Daniel Zelkind tells me the startup isn’t yet profitable but implies that it could be if it chose to", this is an obvious attempt at seeking to interest clients and investors by enticing them about available business opportunities. The next one then goes to state about ""To use Zeek you simply need to download the free app from the App Store or Google Play, upload an unwanted gift voucher, set the price wanted and wait for a buyer. Zeek will send cash directly to sellers and vouchers to buyers, so everyone can get on with the purchases they would prefer to make, with either the cash they wanted, or a bonus on their voucher, which this is entirely PR and something only the company would say about itself, certainly not some uninvolved journalist, and then the article goes to en with an interview, but not before going into specifics about the company's business and finances. Also, see how the company article has changed from 2197:
sugarcoated PR, and are not immune from company-supplied information, therefore the company can and is in fact saying whatever it wants, without having to pay or use another platform, because the news publisher is allowing them to use their in clear exchange for "publishing news". What is always by far important than accepting potentially acceptable articles, are not allowing, at any costs, advertisements, because that's exactly what we have worked to not accept for so long, so by allowing this article and other articles, it would cause a snowball and domino affect to then become excuses of "Well, that advertising article was Keep at AfD because people simply listed sources? I'll list my own sources and republished PR without any worries since no one will likely delete my own advertising". Stating that this may be of interest to viewers in fact not the case, because listing such blatant company information and PR sources, are only what their clients and investors want to see, because no one else aside from these intentions, would care to learn about the company's services, plans or interviewed thoughts by the businesspeople, that's why PR exists, for companies themselves to state what
2570:, in that the news source was simply publishing what the man and company said, not what said news source own words were. "Reputation" means nothing because there has been notoriety as it is that any source can easily republish PR and-or have the person themselves, such as the CEO or businessperson author the "news column" itself, so it is never convincing to state that any news source is automatically acceptable simply because it's a "news source", because once we start accepting anything that comes from there, we're not the closely analyzing encyclopedia that hopes and is careful to not accept advertising. There has been consensus also as it is at AfD that these news sources will even state themselves "This information comes from the company", showing how it was not even the news publication's own efforts, they simply republished company information. The notability guidelines themselves state that any sources must be actual substantial coverage itself, and because I noted above that the listed quotes were not substantial or independent, it's not a convincing source. 2892:- (1) The first 2 are ones that have been listed and counted as unconvincing (see analysis carefully above so mentioning those 2 new links are not acceptable and (2) the last one is literally talking about gift cards and how the business is making money, and it goes to talk about its own plans about money....That's not news, that's PR. As consensus recently has shown, simply iterating that there are news sources meaning nothing if the analysis and Delete votes above have explicitly shown it is the contents the matter, because, hell, the source could even be listing a press release and "Say: Press release by " and that would be, nothing, literally nothing, except that they hired a PR agent for advertising. There is no substantial coverage if a source is simply repeating what the company's own information about their own business plans, because when it's a specific as these, it's not only showing the news source submitted every word, but that the company supplied that exact information. 2449:. “Once it is received and approved, you will be contacted and we will forward you the money in the most convenient way: either check, PayPal or directly to your bank account. If you purchase a store credit or voucher, this item will be sent to you by mail.” The last sentence then goes to actually state information about the investing, that is by classic examples of past AfD Deletions, obvious company-supplied information and PR. Having such blatant company-supplied information therefore clearly affects actually calling it "journalism", especially if there are budget cuts involved, therefore there's not only leniency in what's published, there's then leniency about 3629:- None of the sources referenced in the article have been written by the organization or any of its members and disclosure of collaboration was not used in the articles. This leads me to believe that the media coverage provided is independent by nature. Every time a journalist interview's a company's point person information is exchanged. Although I can understand how some of it can pass as self-promotion, I think the extent of the coverage exceeds well beyond standard media coverage by far. Furthermore, there is a wide range of information provided by the article's sources that details much more than just fundraising or the investors behind 2445:
about Zeek again but that's only because of the CEO and how it's stated how the company can be used, and the "benefits it causes!"....until it gets to puffery again "Zeek has tens of thousands of users in Israel, as well as in Europe and the US, where it is used to buy and sell gift certificates. The ability to break certificates into smaller chunks is a useful one for users abroad, according to Zeek. Plus, the fact that it’s all cloud-based makes Zeek convenient and user-friendly", the information following this then goes to state “When you sell the gift vouchers or store credits, all you have to do is send it to us,”
3107:, but let not the massive sources and information suggest otherwise, it's simply consisting of trivial and unconvincing information about the company, again an example is specifying information about company gift cards, which no one cares about aside from clients and investors and therefore only belongs at the company website instead. The article then actually cares to go to specifics about the numbers involving said clients and investors and of course the sources repeat this also, because it's unacceptable to simply state the fact it's a known news source automatically makes it acceptable, because as notorious as 3431:. I am amazed that the Forbes/sites (not Forbes) has been considered a reliable source when it is very obvious that there is no journalistic oversight. In many of these sources presented, the amount coverage is so limited that the entirety of it has been pasted into this AfD. That's not indepth coverage. The rest of the "news" is essentially very brief pieces about funding which clearly show that they have been placed by the company. None of this is useful for notability. More importantly, I see this as a case of a COI editor pushing to "keep" the article. -- 2440:- The sources above are entirely still PR, because for one example the first article listed, is not only containing company-supplied information, the beginning itself states "the benefits that Zeek gives you!" No one says that unless they have financial gains and interests in the company itself, this article actually never actually focuses with the company as largely as it may first seem, because the large amounts of first paragraphs are about other things such as the political events happening, and the company is finally started to be mentioned in the 525:
ability to break certificates into smaller chunks is a useful one for users abroad, according to Zeek. Plus, the fact that it’s all cloud-based makes Zeek convenient and user-friendly. “When you sell the gift vouchers or store credits, all you have to do is send it to us,” the company says. “Once it is received and approved, you will be contacted and we will forward you the money in the most convenient way: either check, PayPal or directly to your bank account. If you purchase a store credit or voucher, this item will be sent to you by mail.”
3112:
far as adding a massive amount of company PR, but then simply stated they were removing the advert templates themselves simply because they were the author, but that they certainly were not involved with the company....yet they never made any other contributions and they also focused quite heavily with this article alone, that's not something anyone would emphasize as boldly unless they had gains in this article itself. Note one sentence that was added "The company has the potential"....
81: 3679: 2052:- I want to also add that the Keep votes themselves have not either challenged the analysis listed, which includes my own above, or substantiated themselves in any shape or form. Honesty is that not one single source actually came close to becoming both substantial and non-PR. One particular user has come to continue listing that "major news sources" are alone to accept, but it's the 2454:
company in those sentences then simply goes into sales-pitch mode talking about how the company works and how it can be used, next, is how the buying and selling methods work. This then goes to state interviewed information from the businessman and then goes to other specifics about the company's current business plans and actually then goes to end with the same damn sentence about
2655: 3749:
silly (e.g., unlinking red links and poor grammar changes) and the articles and AfDs chosen for editing/participation seem scattershot. But telling in the AfD !votes is a sensitivity to whether an article is promotional (delete) and if the subject appears in a sufficient number of sources per Google search (keep). I wish I had more to go on for a sockpuppet report.
3805: 1938: 2339:, although perhaps on a slightly weaker level. Some sources in the article and listed above provide coverage that is more on the routine side, while still providing some non-routine style coverage. However, other sources provide more comprehensive and thorough coverage, such as the examples provided below, which are 52:. Although the discussion is leaning towards "delete", opinion remains divided, in good faith, over whether the sources are of sufficient quality to sustain an article. This also applies if one only counts the views of established editors. It seems that the attempts at canvassing have had no apparent effect. 3516:
I am well aware of the concerns raised by opposing editors regarding the article. But I don't believe they are justified at this stage of the article. The subject here should be the actual content of the article as opposed to how the information as it is presented by the media, although I do think It

I have clearly and staunchly listed exactly the unacceptable parts from those listed sources above, and I have also been clear that we cannot compare this to other articles especially worldwide ones such as Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc. because they are not the same subject, I repeat myself to make

The mobile app is open to both buyers and sellers, and provides a secure platform for voucher transaction. Zeek's operations also accommodates the purchase of gift cards by consumers at a discounted rate compared to their face value. In April 2015, over 80,000 people were using the mobile app, and in
2444:
and even then, that's simply about ""Zeek aims to replace the hassle by transferring credits to someone who wants them, eliminating the inevitable squabbling over refunds", company puffery and that alone, until the focus goes to politics again, and then after a few other paragraphs, it starts talking
2196:
When an article is not acceptable, is when there's enough to suggest we should otherwise not accept it, and in clear cases, it's because of PR intents and actions, which is the case here, the Delete votes including mine and then my analyses above have shown these exact news sources are in fact simply

Sellers of vouchers will be paid by PayPal or bank transfer. Be warned, however, that you have to wait up to 14 business days for the payment to be made. The Israeli company, which has been trading for more than a year, says the delay is for security reasons. It says the money raised by sales is held
1681:
The app allows sellers to scan in their unwanted gift card and set the price they want for it. Buyers, some of whom might be in the store to make a purchase, can buy the unwanted credit for a discount of around 3%-10%. Electronic vouchers can be redeemed instantly; others have to bought as a physical

When Itay Eral realised a voucher he received as a wedding present had expired before he had a chance to use it, he decided to do something about it. The result it Zeek, a mobile marketplace for unwanted gift vouchers and cards, where sellers are charged a fee of 7% of the card’s value and people can

An interesting suggestion, but any closer should also keep in mind that a no consensus close is allowed in AfD discussions, if such closure is warranted. Other potential closure options are also available. Discussions are not required to be closed exclusively as either keep or delete. Such either-or

BTW the recently deleted content "Most vouchers are sold for around 3%-10% off the card's original value. transactions are paid through a PayPal or via Bank transfer.

The company’s site and app sells gift cards to major brands, as well as resells unused or unwanted gift cards. Reselling would presumably put a dent in what Zeek‘s press release says is a staggering $ 100 billion in unused gift cards, up from an estimated $ 41 billion in unclaimed gift cards between

1361:
The awards listed are not significant, and Red Herring is pay-per-play. The rest is about investments, and "being featured in the news" which is a hallmark of such promotional articles. The sources offered above are not convincing either, as they hue closely to the company messaging and are PR-like

Fresh off a $ 9.5 million Series B funding round, Zeek is planning on expanding beyond its Israeli headquarters and moving into Europe. The company already has a presence in the U.K. — it’s been there since December 2014 — and it now looks as though demand and additional capital will be taking this

Zeek is on a mission to rescue $ 100 billion worth of unused gift cards and vouchers for users. Zeek is a web-based and app marketplace platform that allows users to buy gift vouchers for over 350 leading UK brands at discounted rates as well as sell their unwanted gift vouchers quickly and easily.
464:
Though the app has an easy-to-use graphic interface, its complexity lies in the logistics of transferring the credit from person to person in exchange for money. Zeek serves as the connection between the two parties, in place of a face-to-face meeting, but the process is still somewhat clumsy. This

This account was created on October 2, in the middle of this AfD. Many of the article edits were without merit and I reverted them. If this is a sockpuppet, then it's one that is seemingly trying to appear independent (behavior-wise) of a participant in this AfD, as the article edits were kind of
3704:
WP:GNG is rather thin here because, as shown by the analysis the sources themselves are PR and so is the article and this also shows by the fact this article's history suggests it was only started by PR in and of itself, and that's something we take quite seriously, lest we become a damned website

In many cases, consumers find pursuing a refund more trouble than it’s worth, so they take the line of least resistance – settling for a credit, in the hope that they will find something else they want from the same store. But for those who can’t, Zeek has a solution – a platform that lets buyers,

Today the Tel Aviv-headquarted company is disclosing that it’s closed a $ 3 million Series A round from Blumberg Capital, Qualcomm Ventures (the chip maker’s venture arm), and Waze founder and existing Zeek investor Uri Levin. Originally launched in Israel before expanding to the U.K. in December

While Zeek is clearly a made-in-Israel app – it could have evolved only in a country where refunds are not a matter of course – the app is useful abroad as well. Zeek has tens of thousands of users in Israel, as well as in Europe and the US, where it is used to buy and sell gift certificates. The

So company-provided figures are okay for large companies, but figures provided by secondary sources for smaller companies are no good? You allude above that company-provided figures are problematic, yet also appear to state just above that it's also okay, depending on the size of the company. No

The Zeek app, available for Android and iOS, allows users to scan a copy of their credit and upload details to Zeek’s cloud. Users name their asking price. Zeek categorizes and tags the credit by store, product, style, gender and age appropriateness, and any other criteria users potential buyers

There is no encyclopedic value to this article as it stands and sources presented do not amount to encyclopedia notability. Accepting such promotional articles is not in the best interest of the project, IMO, as it would also mean that volunteer editors would waste their time trying to maintain

Yes, there are from my quotes above, showing the specific examples where the majority of one of the articles simply contained the man saying his own words itself, that was not journalism if the "news" article kept going back to the man himself, instead of the journalist actually making her own

If anyone is repeating their concerns, it's to emphasize what and why they are. No one is making any other statements than that, so as for the deleted contents, this is because it went to such overspecifics about the company and its services, it's clear it only came from one place: the company

I'd like to see more recent and harder (like from long-established newspapers) sources that show the company has had some staying power before voting to keep. That doesn't include articles about the seeking of funding. Also, I'd like to note that we're supposed to judge the notability of the

3095:- Be aware that the history shows these supposed changes were actually simply to add specifications about the company's gift cards operations which of course is PR and this has been noted above with my analysis, the other ones are simply mere simple changes about it, particularly see also 3012:
articles are evidence that the company and its product do generate real interest in worldwide media, and has nothing to do with fundraising or PR. Please note that at this point the reason the article is incomplete in due to over moderation from editors seeking to delete the article.
1387:"The awards listed are not significant, and Red Herring is pay-per-play"?- The awards the company has won are legit. You can basically argue that every award could potentially be fixed by payment. Are you suggesting that all 100 finalists on Red Herring have paid for their placement? 1677:
Available for Apple and Android devices, the free Zeek app aims to match people with unwanted gift cards with people who would be shopping in that particular store anyway. Zeek estimates that 47% of Brits are given an unwanted gift card each year – half of which never get redeemed.
1400:"Zeek’s business model is still not entirely clear- That article is from early 2014 when the company just started. This is evidence of neutral media coverage. Media coverage of the Zeek dated back almost three years which confirms my claim that these are a lot more than PR articles. 3309:

sellers, and barterers of store credits to find each other, no matter where they are. According to Zeek CEO Daniel Zelkind, retailers are cleaning up on this system, to the detriment of consumers. As much as NIS 600 million ($ 175 million) in store credits go unused every year.

I don't agree with any of your assertions of sourcing, based on your putting forward bad sources previously; please don't try to put words into my mouth. Also, please learn to use wiki formatting, instead of messed-up HTML that appears cut-and-pasted from elsewhere -

If you thought gift cards didn’t have traction, think again. Israel-based Zeek announced a $ 9.5 million Series B funding round led by Scale-Up Venture Capital on Wednesday. That financing includes contributions from major players like Blumberg Capital and Qualcomm

I find the responses to my request above to be unsubstantial. Continuing with the crutch of a multiplicity of sources, and simply the opinion that the sources check out as significant non-promo coverage, isn't enough to counter SwisterTwister's analysis. Also,

claim that all sources are not reliable as well as the claim that all media sources here are basically Sock Puppets at the hands of the company is far from accurate. Given more time I could improve the article. There are sufficient sources in order to so.

offense is intended here, and I appreciate your points, (e.g. Facebook is much larger and under more scrutiny) but Knowledge (XXG) articles are based upon what reliable sources state, whereas primary sources should be used sparingly and with discretion.
1393:"*Later that year the company won Appcircus's Connect & Enrich App Challenge award"- What's wrong with this sentence? It is what the original article reports. The company won the award plain and simple. Is that not notable? Why is this advertisement? 2919:

1731:
