Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2018 February 27. —^{cyberbot I}_{Talk to my owner:Online} 11:42, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as per the sources online, Also we have hundreds if not thousands of comparison articles (Comparison of web browsers, Comparison of webmail providers etc etc), Also MANUAL doesn't apply as it's not telling you how to download or what to do ... it just tells you what features are available, Easy keep. –Davey2010^Talk 13:14, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. There isn't even an article on the topic itself, so why is there what amounts to to a spin-off article? WP isn't a consumer guide. Also, "Google hits" is NOT a reliable source. --Calton | Talk 15:57, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

WP:SOFIXIT, Google hits isn't a source but those sources listed ARE. –Davey2010^Talk 19:01, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Invalid deletion criteria. There is nothing in WP:NOTMANUAL that applies here at all. Stand-alone list ("List of..." and "Comparison of..." articles) is a well-established article category on Wikipedia.—J. M. (talk) 01:21, 28 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Seems no different than Comparison of file-sharing applications. Wqwt (talk) 22:57, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
