Notability and Source Summary
Dear reviewer, Following your previous feedback, I have revised the article to better demonstrate notability, independent secondary coverage, and depth of sourcing in line with WP:GNG and WP:CORPDEPTH. The following three sources provide significant, independent coverage about Siltech and its impact in the high-end audio industry: “Verslag: Siltech 40 jaar – onvermoeibaar aan de wereldtop” — FWD.nl (2023)
→ An in-depth feature on Siltech’s 40-year history, company evolution, and product innovation, fully independent of the brand. https://fwd.nl/audio/verslag-siltech-40-jaar-onvermoeibaar-aan-de-wereldtop/
“Silver Everywhere: Sliding in More Siltech” — SoundStage! Ultra (2025)
→ International publication (North America) offering detailed technical analysis and market context for Siltech’s products and history. https://www.soundstageultra.com/index.php/features-menu/opinion-menu/1276-silver-everywhere-sliding-in-more-siltech
“A New Legend Is Born: Siltech Classic Legend Series” — The Absolute Sound (2021)
→ U.S. print and online publication widely recognized for objective high-end audio reviews; provides detailed commentary on Siltech’s technology and positioning in the industry. https://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/a-new-legend-is-born-siltech-classic-legend-series/
Additional significant, independent coverage: Hi-Fi+ (UK) review of Classic Legend (Alan Sircom, 2022) HiFiStatement (Germany) review of Classic Legend 380 Series (2023) StereoNET (Australia) coverage of 680/880i cables (2025) LowBeats (Germany) detailed test of Classic Legend (2022) Phileweb (Japan) listing Siltech in Audio Accessory Excellence Awards (2021) The current draft avoids promotional language, uses only reliable secondary sources, and integrates citations across multiple regions (Europe, North America, Asia-Pacific) — showing sustained international notability over decades.

- Hi @Rishkum,
- Thanks for this.
- I'm not completely persuaded the draft meets WP:NCORP in circumstances of the draft being a paid article. The third source you included for WP:THREE is a press release and so is not considered a reliable source, as defined.
