I am unable to locate any significant coverage with in-depth information on the company and containing independent content. Coverage is mainly about Kathy Ireland, the person, and almost nothing about the company. As such, topic fails GNG/WP:NCORP. HighKing⁺⁺ 13:08, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The best coverage I found on the company; CNN Money, Fox Business, Triad Business Jounal.Harley.M.X (talk) 16:57, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Response Thanks for that. Unfortunately, none of those articles meet the criteria for establishing notability (which is a different standard than the one applied to references that support details and facts within an article). None of those articles contain "Independent Content". The CNN Money article doesn't even mention this company and is based entirely on a announcement and interview with Kathy Ireland. It has no Independent Content nor has it any details on the company. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:ORGIND. The Fox Business reference is essentially an interview with Kathy and a summary of that interview. It has no Independent Content and fails WP:ORGIND. Finally, the Triad Business Jounal article is churnalism and is practically word-for-word based on the PR Announcement of the partnership. For example, newKerala has the exact same article and attributes the story to PRN (being PR News) and Business Insider also carry the same story and mark it as a Press Release. Fails WP:ORGIND.

Merge to Kathy Ireland in lieu of deletion. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 18:44, 4 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment A Merge and Redirect to Kathy Ireland is a good idea - not sure if there's anything to merge as there's a good section already in the article. HighKing⁺⁺ 19:54, 4 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Kathy Ireland. Coverage of this company in that article is already better than this one and the notability of the company cannot be extricated from the notability of its founder. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 20:27, 4 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
