Fails WP:NSOFT. It says it earned the "Best Use of New Firefox 1.5 Features" award for the Extend Firefox contest, but I don't believe that it merits notability. I couldn't even find the sources which support this claim. Deltaspace⁴² (talk • contribs) 18:24, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

That contest had a lot of media coverage; that extension also had tens of millions of installs, and was consistently one of the top Firefox extensions. 79.155.41.229 (talk) 22:36, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

• Delete: Delete as notability is not inherited from winning a Firefox contest and more importantly fail to meet WP:NSOFT. बिनोद थारू (talk) 03:02, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
