    initial v1  
    22
    33✅ **Is the service is popular enough for core developers to have heard of it before? Is it “mainstream?”**
     4
    45Deezer is a quite popular service; with "14 million monthly active users, and 7 million paid subscribers as of January 2019".
    56
     
    78
    89
     10✅ **If similar services are already supported, how does this service compare in terms of size, features, and backing?**
     11
     12I guess what is being asked here is if WordPress already supports other services like Deezer?
     13
     14Spotify, Soundcloud, and Youtube which are quite similar already have embeds in the block editor.
     15
     16✅ **Does this service have a large following on Twitter, Facebook, or other social media?  Is its Twitter account verified?**
     17
     18Yes, their [https://twitter.com/deezer/ Twitter], [https://web.facebook.com/deezer Facebook], [https://www.instagram.com/deezer/, Instagram] and [https://www.youtube.com/deezer Youtube] accounts are all certified and have a large follower base.
     19
     20✅ **Is its oEmbed endpoint clearly established and properly documented? (Sometimes, they are just a developer’s pet project that may not be supported.)**
     21
     22Their seems to have a documented oEmbed endpoint [http://developers.deezer.com/musicplugins/player?type=0&id=1167238013 here] and [https://developers.deezer.com/api/oembed-endpoint here].
     23
     24✅ **Does the oEmbed endpoint work with WordPress’ oEmbed auto-discovery? If not, could it be made to work with additional HTML tags or attributes being whitelisted?**
     25
     26When you add a link to a Deezer track in the editor, it is not recognized.
     27
     28But I think it's because the structure of the endpoint URL for Deezer is slightly different from other services? https://www.deezer.com/plugins/player
     29
     30It shoudl be possible to adapt this structure.
     31
     32✅ **Does the service make an effort to build relationships with developers, such as through robust APIs?**
     33
     34Yes, there is an [https://developers.deezer.com/api API documentation] as well as [https://deezer.io/ a regular engineering blog].
     35
     36✅ **How old is the service?**
     37
     38The service is 13 years old.
     39
     40Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deezer
     41
     42✅ **Does it have a well-established Wikipedia article? (Seriously.)**
     43
     44Yes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deezer
     45
     46
     47**Has anyone written a WordPress plugin that leverages the service in some way, whether adding it as an oEmbed provider, creating a shortcode, or leveraging other APIs of the service? Do these plugins have any noticeable adoption or traction that would indicate usage and demand?**
     48
     49The only plugin I've found is this https://wordpress.org/plugins/deezer-widget.
     50And it has not receive an update for 8 years now.
     51
     52
     53**Is the provider frequently proposed?**
     54
     55The current ticket is the only one I'm seeing in Trac and Gutenberg repo for this provider.
