Contested deletion edit
This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because the article's subject has more than enough notable press, including features in some of the biggest publications, listed among the 13 sources (Inc. (more than once), Forbes (more than once), TechCrunch, etc). I apologize my sources were all broken at first. If you re-check, I think you will find they all now direct properly. I am currently searching for more sources to prove notability as well. HiramS (talk) 03:46, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
