The result of the debate was NO CONSENSUS. — JIP | Talk 05:28, 13 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
This article was undeleted after a supported request at VfU. It was previously deleted in accordance with Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bindows, but the VfU debate was happy to restore the article given the lack of participation and the promise from the original editor that he would de-advertify the article. As part of that request, the article was reverted to its original state. This is a procedural relisting. No comment from me. -Splashtalk 02:04, 3 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. This software is not free and likely an advertisement. Furthermore, when this article was created, the latest version was 1.31 beta when it is 1.51 stable. It's not a notable piece of software either. --AllyUnion (talk)04:46, 3 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Perhaps because this is an old (e.g. restored) version of this article? Besides, that's more {{sofixit}} than a reason to delete, isn't it? - brenneman(t)(c) 06:56, 3 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per AllyUnion. Xoloz 06:12, 3 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. I didn't intend to create the article as as advertisement. I've created and edited a few other computer related articles also. I'm not related to the company that creates the software. I do use this particular software though, and am aware that many others use it too. Google returns 136,000 hits. I'm ready to remove any part that looks like advertising.

- Delete The article does not read particularly as ad copy, but the fact that it is fairly unnotable, limited use commercial software suggests that this entry is designed to provide the appearance of independent support for the product, making it effectively de facto advertising. Could the relevant content and links be moved to the Ajax (programming) article? It would probably recieve more critical attention and relevant review there.

- Keep I have no problem with this article. Alf melmac 13:16, 7 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - the concept is covered comprehensively by the Ajax (programming) article, and Bindows is just one implementation of that concept. It merits an external link in the Libraries section of the Ajax article.
