Does not seem to pass Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) Avi (talk) 01:42, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. What we learn from those sources is mostly that they are litigious. One is a magazine story that uses an account of litigation involving this business, which it lost, apparently because it could not deliver promised software, as a background for general musings about the high cost of litigation. The second is from a law book supplement about (the same? another?) lawsuit which resulted in a reported decision - it's about the point of law decided in the case, not really about this business. The third is a listing for a very minor trade award, awarded by another business software provider: neither reliable, nor strong evidence of notability. I'm tempted to rewrite the article from the viewpoint of the magazine article; that at least is primarily about this business, even if they're used mostly as the Bad Example of a cautionary tale. But if all that can be said about this business from reliable, independent sources is that they make more promises than they can deliver on, and then start lawsuits against their clients, I'm not sure that meets business notability either. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 18:40, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep (change from keep). Your points bring up even more concerns about WP:COI (which this article already has a bit too much of going on). Rewriting from the viewpoint of the magazine would undoubtedly draw criticism as a potential attack page and there doesn't seem to be enough "good" and/or notable content out there to balance. There is little holding me on the keep side of the fence besides the remaining chance of potential notability and a not-to-be-used WP:EFFORT argument. ZabMilenko 07:25, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, I cannot see the article being regarded as independent or notable. I do respect the efforts of the first editor to improve the article, but an editor should not focus on just one article. Nelson50T 09:28, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. These sources establish notability: [1] [2] [3][4] [5] [6]. The current state of the article is not very good, and could use some cutting down. That does not mean it should be filled by mostly negative things though. --Apoc2400 (talk) 15:26, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • QUESTION: Why are the sources that are currently listed on the article not counted toward notability?Jen Svensson (talk) 17:37, 2 June 2009 (UTC) JenSvensson[reply]
  • Most of them are from the company's own website. The BusinessWeek reference does help establosh notability I think. --Apoc2400 (talk) 23:50, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:TNT. There could be a good article about this, but what we have fails quite badly. Stifle (talk) 08:49, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
