Non-notable software fails WP:GNG, no coverage outside of local news. Covered only once in a Rochester local interest paper, and in a Rochester business journal. ~ A412 ^talk! 03:58, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Per nom. Sourcing simply isn't there to show this meets WP:NSOFTWARE or WP:GNG. Only local coverage, and even that seems to be regurgitated press releases. - MrOllie (talk) 20:50, 17 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for now, and ask author if there has been coverage outside of local outlets? Maybe add a Template:Missing information?

WP:DNB

I'm a new editor and have been using this article to learn the "ways of Wikipedia". I see others commenting about local coverage and read the WP:GNG page to understand more. I did find an article here by a California company but it isn't a published informational article (like from BusinessWeek or something). https://www.parentsquare.com/blog/parentsquare-partners-with-mindex-schooltool-to-bring-seamless-communication-and-family-engagement-to-new-york-school-districts/

That's not an article, that's a press release. They do not establish notability. MrOllie (talk) 18:14, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Democrat & Chronicle: Mindex's schooltool software turns 15 IgelRM (talk) 13:26, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: fails NSOFT. And with all due respect to Democrat and Chronicle, a puff piece in a Rochester local newspaper isn't enough to establish notability. Owen× ☎ 23:02, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: This subject fails to meet the notability criteria for inclusion on Wikipedia; there appears to be a lack of significant coverage PhantomSteve/talk¦contribs\ 08:47, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
