Piece of software with no news or other coverage in reliable, independent sources. Previously deleted as a blatant advertisement, the page serves only to mention and promote the software. Protonk (talk) 01:30, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: I can't find significant coverage for this software. Joe Chill (talk) 02:11, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete this version is a lot better than the one I speedy deleted, which was just a copy of the advertising spiel from their website, but the software is non-notable. There are a lot of listings on many software review sites, but I think the source of these is the company itself which is heavily promoting its product (e.g. there is a listing with a brief summary on CNET[1], a RS, by the byline is actually the company).

- Delete - Software is not inherently notable, and product listings and capsule reviews don't count towards notability here any more than they do with self-published books and direct-to-DVD movies. Nothing here establishes this software as anything other than run of the mill or meets the notability guidelines at WP:N. - DustFormsWords (talk) 03:51, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. While this would appear to be consumer software, there seems to be be next to no coverage in multiple reliable sources other than routine version announcements and blog reviews. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 15:15, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
