If you don't know ho wto fix it, ask at the Teahouse (invitation is on your user page). The notability/sources issues are partially because the sources you use are not considered reliable, or are not in-depth enough to indicate notability. Company websites are not notable, and a brief mention in passing, or a one-paragraph article, do not make a subject notable.
