Proposed deletion of Craftsvilla

The article Craftsvilla has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails to meet WP:CORP. Sources are press releases[1]

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

The proposed deletion process has been temporarily stopped because you objected to the deletion of the article. However, this does not preclude deletion via the Articles for deletion process, and given the current sourcing of the article, it would probably end up deleted if taken to AFD. Wikipedia's notability guidelines require that, for an article to exist on a certain subject, it must be shown that the subject has received significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. Independent here means that the source has no connection to the subject whatsoever. The concerns raised by the editor who proposed the article for deletion involved the fact that the sources seemed to be nothing more than the product of press releases by Craftsvilla. Obviously, press release coverage is not independent, because its based on the PR released by the company itself. In order to prevent deletion, you'll need to show that Craftsvilla has received significant coverage in the media when not prompted by press releases by the organization.

I have strengthened the internal wiki linking in the Craftsvilla article, introduced inline citations and added the infobox. I hope the article now meets wiki guidelines. I would request you to remove the "article proposed for deletion" template now. Please review and share your thoughts soon.

The possible deletion of the article is being discussed (you can contribute to the discussion here), and until that discussion finishes the deletion template will have to stay at the top of the page.
