A promotional article on a non-notable product. I cannot find any significant coverage in third-party sources - other than promotional material and one minor piece of coverage from a source of questionable reliability - which would establish notability.

- Delete No indication of notability. Getting reviewed is not notable. --HighKing (talk) 13:19, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. No significant coverage by reliable secondary sources. The citation used in the article is of a blog, and one that isn't reliable. A search for news articles doesn't bring much, outside of PR releases.--xanchester (t) 13:29, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Hi. This looks like a clear-cut case of lack of notability. I found no editorial reviews in CNET Download.com, Softpedia or Softonic and my other search attempts came up bare. Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 15:01, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- There are 342,000 results for trakAxPC in Google. I included the CNET / Softonic / Softpedia links so you could see the download hits to show a notable amount of users for this software. (signed by User:Catrionabarry)
- I've a concern that you may not understand what is required for notability. The new links you have included in the article are not arms length independent reviews from reputable publishers. The CNET link uses information provided by the software publisher. As does the snapfiles link. The softonic link has a review from a softonic editor but it's hardly arms length since the software publisher makes it available for downloading at that site, and there are *no* bad reviews at softonic (hmmmm...) --HighKing (talk) 22:56, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
