:'''Keep''' – UrbanGeekz meets the General Notability Guideline ([[Wikipedia:Notability|WP:GNG]]) through significant, independent coverage in reliable secondary sources over multiple years. |
|||
:The subject has received non-trivial editorial coverage in independent publications, including feature articles in Black Enterprise (2015, 2017), which discuss the company’s founding, editorial focus, and leadership. Rolling Out (2016) also provides coverage of the platform’s launch and purpose as a technology-focused media outlet. |
|||
:More recent coverage demonstrates continued notability. Hypepotamus (2022) discusses UrbanGeekz’s expansion and role within the Atlanta technology ecosystem, while People of Color in Tech and The Voice (UK) (2023) report on the UrbanGeekz 50 initiative and its international scope. |
|||
:These sources are independent of the subject, span several years, and provide substantive coverage rather than routine mentions. This satisfies [[Wikipedia:Notability|WP:GNG]] and [[Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)|WP:ORG]]. [[User:Miat94|Miat94]] ([[User talk:Miat94|talk]]) 19:24, 24 April 2026 (UTC) |
