Was conflicted about accepting it. I recently was told that one way in such cases was to accept and nominate for deletion so that the community can decide. It has a lot of funding related clutter but also some sources like vogue and LA times may meet WP:CORPDEPTH. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 01:44, 11 November 2021 (UTC)

:* I'm going to say keep on this one—between the L.A. Times{{'}} storyline coverage, ZDNet's coverage of the algorithms used by the company, and Forbes' investment coverage, I think this article has something to offer and passes WP:NCORP. This article does need to be rewritten, though. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 04:10, 11 November 2021 (UTC)

:* Keep I included the funding because I thought it was relevant to a young company. It certainly has WP:CORPDEPTH as I found many more articles but I didn't want to commit WP:OVERKILL. --Timothyplaya (talk) 17:46, 13 November 2021 (UTC)

: Timothyplaya , I should remind you that you must declare your WP:COI if you are connected with the company. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 14:06, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

: I have no connection. I was surprised this was a business and then I started researching.--Timothyplaya (talk) 16:21, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

:* Strong Keep. Between the LA Times, Vogue, and a number of in depth WSJ articles, the references meet WP:NCORP. The "funding clutter" (assuming this is a reference to Footlocker?) has received a ton of coverage across a range of publications (e.g. [https://www.barrons.com/articles/foot-locker-hasnt-gotten-credit-for-stake-in-popular-online-marketplace-analyst-says-51612544910 Barron's], [https://www.cnbc.com/2019/02/12/goat-group-ceo-foot-locker-gets-digital-tools-with-100-million-bet.html CNBC], [https://techcrunch.com/2019/02/07/foot-locker-invests-100-million-in-goat-group/ Tech Crunch], [https://www.gq.com/story/foot-locker-invests-100-million-goat-thats-a-lot-of-sneakers GQ]), so even this seems to be a notable enough inclusion.
