There is nothing to indicate that the subject is notable. It's a non-notable company that is framed as "a business community". If there is anything worth keeping, it can be merged with Dubai Holding, which is the company that owns this subsidiary. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 13:48, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

Keep. Neighbourhoods are notable. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 11:40, 15 November 2021 (UTC)
Comment per WP:GEOFEAT 2 "...commercial developments, may be notable as a result of their historic, social, economic, or architectural importance, but they require significant in-depth coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability.", with that said, here is a source assess table:

{{ source assess table

| user = Snood1205

| src1 = {{cite news|title=How a focus on science can help the economy grow|url=https://www.thenational.ae/opinion/how-a-focus-on-science-can-help-the-economy-grow-1.93042|work=The National|access-date=2021-11-15|language=en}}

| i1 = n | i1j = Written by the executive director of Dubai Science Park

| r1 = ? | r1j = The national news seems to be reliable itself for news, but not necessarily for op-eds; however there is not consensus on reliability of National News on WP:RSN

| s1 = y | s1j = Makes significant mention of DSP.

| src2 = {{cite web|date=2015-10-19|title=TECOM creates new Dubai Science Park after merger - Technology|url=http://www.arabianbusiness.com/tecom-creates-new-dubai-science-park-after-merger--609328.html|access-date=2021-11-15|website=ArabianBusiness.com}}

| i2 = n | i2j = Seems to be a direct press release that was written by a "Staff writer"

| r2 = - | r2j = It does seem that a fair amount of their reporting is independent, but they also seem to release press releases unedited.

| s2 = y | s2j = Entire article is about DSP

| src3 = {{Cite web|title=Startups, SMEs account for 40 per cent of Dubai Science Park’s business partners|url=https://www.mediaoffice.ae/en/news/2021/September/08-09/Startups-SMEs-account-for-40-per-cent-of-Dubai-Science-Parks-business-partners|date=8 September 2021 |access-date=2021-11-15|website=www.mediaoffice.ae}}

| i3 = n | i3j = Promotional piece by the Government of Dubai

| r3 = n | r3n = Promotional website by the Government of Dubai

| s3 = y | s3j = Entire piece is about DSP

| i4 = ? | i4j = While I cannot find a direct relationship between Branding in Asia and DSP, this seems to be very promotional in tone; however, I cannot definitively say it's promotional; this could just be the style of the website.

| r4 = ? | r4j = They have a news section that seems to report on news within the Asian adveritising world; however, it seems to not be sourced from anywhere other than from the company it is reporting on and does not really have any sort of critiques within the article. It's largely just what the company wants to be released.

| s4 = y | s4j = Piece is about video made about DSP

| src5 = {{Cite web|title=Healthcare Drive Sees Dubai Science Park Attract Leading Global Companies in 2020|url=https://www.mediaoffice.ae/en/news/2021/Jan/25-01/Healthcare-Drive-Sees-Dubai-Science-Park-Attract|date=25 January 2021|access-date=2021-11-15|website=www.mediaoffice.ae}}

| i6 = n | i6j = From DSP's website

| r6 = y | r6n = It would seem that DSP is not lying about their offerings

| s6 = y | s6n = It is about DSP and their offerings

I will note, this seems to appear in a number of books as well, but the books are either: trivially mentioning the park or are promotional. I could not find any WP:RS about it, and therefore per WP:GEOFEAT this currently fails. Having said that, with the sheer number of mentions it is odd there are are not any WP:RS and hence I think it is possible this article could be kept if there are reliable sources about the science park. With the number of companies there, and number of hits on google for it there should be something. snood1205^{(Say Hi! (talk))} 14:13, 15 November 2021 (UTC)
