DarkIce[edit]

Free software package with no assertion or evidence of notability. I PRODded it, also noting that it had no third-party references, but the PROD was removed and a reference - a post on a mailing list - was added. I see no sign that this software has any encyclopedic notability. Stormie (talk) 21:50, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, no evidence of notability given. --fvw * 21:53, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Postpone I removed PROD since googling gives lots of links: audio streaming darkice and audio encoder darkice, e.g. darkice at linuxconsulting.ro and Icecast amaroK script. By deleting PROD tag I wanted to attract attention of more experienced audience to this topic. DarkIce seems not to be a dead project, moreover, there are some traces of its usage in google. I don't have enough time nor experience in subject to prove that googled-sources are reliable but hope this discussion will attract experts how can. --Wallach2008 (talk) 22:45, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I did a Google test too, and it seemed that all the top links were software distribution sites and posts about DarkIce on forums, etc. I certainly wasn't seeing any sign of significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject (e.g. magazine articles). --Stormie (talk) 03:14, 19 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
