fails to meet WP:NCORP. Every ref is PR or mere notice DGG ( talk ) 03:09, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

- Delete: Following the previous AfD deletion, the contributing editor was advised to submit a draft of any revised instance through AfC but has instead placed it into mainspace. A substantial proportion of the article text and references are about the history of another firm, Social Capital (venture capital), from which this company does not inherit notability. I am not seeing anything to suggest the September 2019 AfD decision should be overturned; fails WP:NCORP. AllyD ( talk) 09:59, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
- Apologies AllyD and DGG, I got confused as to the next step after publishing it as a draft. Should I move it back into drafts and then submit it via the process? There are a number of long form articles about Tribe from sources like TechCrunch that are in depth and not PR like https://techcrunch.com/2019/06/05/tribe-capital/. Do those not suffice because they're about the formation of Tribe out of Social Capital? I'm happy to look for other in depth articles on Tribe. Inkforest ( talk) 12:11, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - venture firms and other such capital sources just are run of the mill and to be blunt not notable. In today's low-regulatory environment, anybody can start a venture firm with as little as $1 and operate it, as long as you don't promise too much to your investors. Unless you have $1 Billion, you are not automatically notable. Bearian ( talk) 02:48, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
