Speedy Deletion of AppsFlyer Article

I would like to understand why you marked the AppsFlyer article for deletion. It was approved 3 weeks ago as a starter article and I provided over 15 references. This is a legitimate company in the ad tech industry no different than Flurry or Branch Metrics. What is your issue with the article? I would like the opportunity to fix it.

See my comment on the article talk page. (talk to) TheOtherGaelan('s contributions) 06:16, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

User:TheOtherGaelan I read your comments on the talk page. What information do you think should be added to keep the page. Even you conceded that the company is notable. Glorydaze716 (talk) 07:28, 15 June 2015 (UTC)

User:Glorydaze716 The article reads like an advertisement, not a neutral encyclopedia article. See WP:NOTADVERTISING
