non-notable app with no mention in reliable sources. I suspect this as advertising as the article creator's other edits are mainly regarding adding this app in the see also sections of notable software, and adding non-notable sites as references. Daiyusha (talk) 07:14, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • I agree that this is a non-notable app and it does not cite any reliable sources according to wikipedia's guidelines. RandewP (talk) 01:07, 5 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - lacks sufficient coverage in reliable independant secondary sources to pass WP:GNG. Meszzy2 (talk) 07:46, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The current sourcing is problematic - there are reviews on blogs, reviews on sites that openly charge for hosting reviews, trivial coverage in listicles, but nothing that would approach the level of WP:CORPDEPTH. I had a look for better sourcing, but didn't find any. So, fails WP:NCORP, delete. GirthSummit (blether) 16:34, 7 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    While I agree with your evaluation, I note that software falls under WP:GNG and not WP:NCORP, unless the article covers the software's parent company. — Newslinger talk 06:51, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    After a talk page discussion, I think Girth Summit's interpretation of WP:NCORP is correct, and FullReader does fall under the scope of WP:NCORP. It's strange that software is held to different notability standards depending on whether it's developed by a corporation/organization or an individual/unknown author, but this appears to be what the guideline indicates. — Newslinger talk 08:47, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
