The Newland Digital Technology article might warrant deletion if it lacks significant coverage from independent, reliable sources that confirm its notability beyond its own promotional material. If the article predominantly relies on self-published sources or fails to demonstrate notable impact in the broader technology sector, it may not meet Wikipedia's general notability guideline (GNG).

~~Speedy Keep~~ for failure to state a deletion rationale. "If it lacks" and "if the article" are not words that suggest an argument for deletion. Furthermore, the wording of this nomination does not disclose whether other sources were identified during WP:BEFORE searches. If there are flaws that cannot be resolved with other sources then you can explain them so others can respond intelligently. Oblivy (talk) 12:42, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The nominator sounds like they are saying the article predominantly relies on SPS and fails GNG. It looks like English isn't their first language and even if it doesn't sound right, SPS and GNG should be something to easily refute or acknowledge. – The Grid (talk) 13:25, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That may be a fair reading, but we have an article with 24 sources. Are none of them good? Are there other sources that can be identified on a reasonable search, per Wikipedia:BEFORE and WP:NEXISTS? I don't understand why WP:BURDEN comes into it. Surely a user can't show up at AfD and compel other users to refute a vague assertion that there aren't sufficient sources? That may be easy, or it may not (a proper search is going to require looking at Chinese media as well). Oblivy (talk) 22:30, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The Wikipedia article states:
Founded in 1994, Newland NPT mainly manufactures payment terminals, PIN pads, and point of sale (POS) hardware and software. In 2016, it was ranked the third POS terminal supplier worldwide after Ingenico and Verifone. In 2017, the company overtook Verifone and became the second-largest POS terminal manufacturer in the world.
This company is clearly notable. I agree with Oblivy (talk · contribs) that this AfD nomination should not have been made. Editor time is expensive, particularly for Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/China topics where there is a very limited pool of editors with the Chinese-language expertise to search for sources. I endorse what Oblivy said at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Duanju. Cunard (talk) 11:41, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:NEXISTS based on multiple in-depth sources identified by @Cunard. In particular the analyst reports from Hua'an, Haitong, and Everbright Securities are SIRS (company is publicly listed, refer to WP:LISTED). The Fujian Daily and China Daily articles are not substantial but attest to real-world notability, as do articles like this from Reuters.

Keep, with sources suggesting notability, sufficiently referenced and well-written with no suitable merge target. Klbrain (talk) 22:02, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
