- Keep 80.85.54.130 10:03, 27 February 2006 (UTC) I vote Keep. because of the following: 1. The article gives an accurate description on what is Floatware. 2. Deleting the article, or similar articles because of "low google hits" undermines the whole idea behind Wikipedia, thats is, Wikipedia is about providing free, accurate and truthful descriptions/explanations etc., and not about "Google Hits". example: The extinct bird "DoDo" has low google hits, doest that mean it should be deleted?. The Free Encyclopedia "Wikipedia" is NOT and should NOT be about adding pages/articles because similar terms/phrases/keywords have high google hits/ratings. Adding marketing/commercial value to Wikipedia can be done differently, not by adding or deleting articles based on "google hits ratings".[reply]
- Delete per above, and FTR the dodo bird gets more than a half-million google hits. Tuf-Kat 01:48, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
