Delete as unreferenced original research. The "next big thing" is the deletion of this article. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 04:44, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete While the article is not well written, it's not clear that it is original research. The points in the article seem to follow those in the Times of India and the other article cited. The main problem is that the article really isn't about careers in app development; it's about growth of the market and which platforms might be most lucrative. We already have a Mobile application development article that covers a lot of these basics of app development and a List of mobile software distribution platforms article that goes into some detail in comparing platforms and market share. It is unclear if there is anything to merge into the other articles. I appreciate the author's effort in creating this article, \ but it seems that the article is redundant. --Mark viking (talk) 05:20, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I agree with the analysis thus far, particularly Cullen328's humourous take. Stalwart111 08:06, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I don't think it is original research since it is mainly taken from Careers - Mobile application development - android - ios - windows - HTML5. I do agree that it is redundant regarding platform comparison. The topic doesn't make a whole lot of sense because mobile app development is a type of career in itself.--I am One of Many (talk) 09:09, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Seems to be written as a guide for selecting careers. That is what belongs at career fairs and not on Wikipedia. Thekillerpenguin (talk) 01:37, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
