A Nokia promotional program that closed in 2004. The program previously offered special offers to loyal customers/members. ^{Atsme✍🏻📧} 00:11, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And, what's your justification of nominating this for deletion? --KaukoHaapavesi (talk) 00:15, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry but I do not see how this is 'promotion'. Club Nokia was both a loyalty programme AND software portal that closed c. 2004. This is nothing about promotion. Not to mention it is notable because of the deal with EMI (a then-huge record label) and the resulting unease with mobile carriers. --KaukoHaapavesi (talk) 12:23, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I fail to see any logical rationale for deletion, article has a number of sources, looks like it passes WP:GNG to me. Govvy (talk) 13:44, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Customer loyalty rewards are pure promotion - the article even states "...provided special offers as well as paid-for ringtones, ...." The promotion ran its course and now it's no longer available - that's how promotions work. The article also states For the venue formerly known as Club Nokia, see The Novo by Microsoft. I'm not sure what the latter is about. So far, the arguments to keep are not convincing. I checked the cited sources - the 1st barely has a full paragraph about the Club Nokia promo, the second is its own archived website, the 3rd is a paragraph or 2 in an entire book. Govvy, as a reviewer, what RS convinced you it passes GNG? ^{Atsme✍🏻📧} 15:56, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thing is, the customer loyalty is just one part of it - Club Nokia was also a media portal for e.g. downloads. Now that part surely can't be about promotion. --KaukoHaapavesi (talk) 18:09, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
