@CNMall41: I am a paid contributor working with @Wryanmeyer: on the Yoshi Mobility revision. You mentioned May 19, 2026 on the Talk Page for WikiProject Companies that you were open to reviewing his company's article for notability. I have replaced and updated the Yoshi Mobility draft with reliable sources, including Forbes, The Washington Post, Bloomberg, Entrepreneur, and CNBC, as well as trade press (i.e. Bulk Transporter), and local news (i.e. The Nashville Business Journal). Thank you for your consideration! We welcome your feedback. Chaud321 (talk) 12:19, 1 July 2026 (UTC)

Aug 3 - No LLMs

Hi MSK! It is nice to meet you. Please allow me to provide irrefutable proof that Draft:Yoshi_Mobility is my original work. Between June 15 (see history) and June 30 (see history) I saved 349 incremental revisions to Draft:Yoshi_Mobility in my sandbox. As a matter of principle, I do not use LLMs to compose my drafts. I can say truthfully that I did not use LLMs to complete Draft:Yoshi_Mobility. I welcome your scrutiny of my Sandbox history that records the timestamped, step-by-step, research and citation-focused, entirely human process by which I pieced together this draft article over a period of 15 days. I look forward to hearing what my next steps should be. Chaud321 (talk) 13:24, 3 August 2026 (UTC)

After further inspection, yeah, there is probably no LLM usage in your draft. Sorry for the inconvenience, I've removed the decline notice. Have a good day. msk 15:44, 3 August 2026 (UTC)

MSK, thank you so much! Everything looks good now. Chaud321 (talk) 17:39, 3 August 2026 (UTC)

Aug 4 - Clarification: Yoshi Mobility is a company + notability

Hi Dafootballguy! It's nice to meet you. You posted that Draft:Yoshi_Mobility does "not show that the person meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for people."

I think this may be a mistake because Yoshi Mobility is not a person; Yoshi Mobility is a company.

I'd be happy to review Wikipedia:Notability_(organizations_and_companies). The article references seven sources that fit all four criteria for organizational notability (significant, independent, reliable, secondary). The seven sources are:

• Bloomberg
• Business Insider
• The Washington Post
• Forbes
• Entrepreneur
• VentureBeat
• CNBC

I believe that Draft:Yoshi_Mobility strongly passes the notability criteria for organizations and companies. Happy to discuss it further! Chaud321 (talk) 13:59, 4 August 2026 (UTC)

Dafootballguy, I went to a Wikipedia live help session and received some good instruction on the article's notability, in particularly the quality of the sources (or lack thereof). Drawing from my learnings, Draft:Yoshi_Mobility has received significant text cuts:

• reduction in primary sources
• removals of articles lacking provenance (as in no named author)
• removals of non-essential trade press

I made the addition of The Guardian as another reputable source. New TechCrunch references were authored by staff writers.

The article also includes Business Insider, Entrepreneur, The Washington Post, Bloomberg, VentureBeat, and CNBC, and I have placed new emphasis on the best coverage, as evaluated by my help session editor. (Forbes citations have been removed due to the authors being contributors.)

It is my belief that the draft now better aligns with Wikipedia's standards of notability. Thank you for your input!

Aug 11 - Notability Update

Hi Accesscrawl, thank you for the encouragement that the draft is improving! Per your recommendations, the Draft:Yoshi_Mobility length has been significantly reduced to focus on the most significant independent coverage:

• Sources Business Insider, Entrepreneur, and The Washington Post provide independent, extensive coverage of the company as the main story subject.
• The new fire marshal paragraph citing Bloomberg and The Guardian adheres to the [notability principle] that "Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material."
• Sources TechCrunch and the Nashville Business Journal provide factual context.
• Only two primary sources are included.

Entrepreneur is not a good source based on the specific author. There is a disclaimer that "opinions expressed are their own" which shows no editorial oversight. I like the TechCrunch source but I know editors are often divided on it because they talk a lot about funding (for what is is worth, this one goes more in-depth about the company than funding). There are at least three sources that stand out for notability which are bylined, in-depth, and independent and believe meet WP:CORPDEPTH. Those are The Business Insider, The Guardian, and the Bloomberg reference. With that in mind, I would defer to previous reviewers on any cleanup it may need prior to going to the mainspace, but believe it meets WP:NCORP. --CNMall41 (talk) 03:07, 12 August 2026 (UTC)

COI Request for Category Fix

Would someone be able to replace the CATEGORY Category:Y_Combinator with Category:Y_Combinator_companies at the bottom of the page?

Specific text to be added:

−

[[:Category:Y_Combinator_companies|Y Combinator Companies]]

+

This was a test!

NOTE: Please remember to delete the colon ":" before the word Category when you add the category to the page.

Specific text to be REMOVED:

−

[[:Category:Y_Combinator|Y Combinator ]]

+

This was a test!

Reason for the change: Yoshi Mobility was part of the Y Combinator (BATCH) summer 2016. The correct category they should be in is Category:Y_Combinator_companies, (not Category:Y_Combinator, which is an overarching category).

References supporting change:

• Yoshi Mobility's Y Combinator Profile
• TechCrunch article

Thank you so much for your help!
