Non-notable software, article is spam. It's already been speedy deleted three times, but the creator doesn't want to give up. JDtalk 23:30, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, per nom. Its been me who's been putting the db-advert tags on. StoptheDatabaseState 23:32, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. It may be a less-known product, but it's not marketing/spam. WindowBlinds mentions their win and links to their Shareware Industry Awards Foundation People's Choice Awards page. They go farther by linking to Download.com and to a press release in their References. ACDSee makes reference to its shareware status and the pricing of the current version of the product. Spybot - Search & Destroy has no references, only external links -- two of which are two its own web site.

- WEAK WEAK Keep. Had a hard time deciding. The article needs fixing up definitely. With tweaking I'm thinking it "may" get out of the advert/spam zone... -WarthogDemon 00:18, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep but it's really boarder line. The comment on price and the unsourced parts bother me. ---J.S (T/C) 00:28, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete; per nomination. --Mhking 01:32, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Linking to related articles does not constitute spammer-like activities. Veganguy 02:35, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- That's true. I stand by my own impression, but since I can't quite tell you what bothers me about them, I strongly recommend that others investigate on their own and not take my comments as any sort of gospel. I do apologize to you personally -- Wikipedia asks us to assume good faith, and I did not do that. --Mdwyer 21:33, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you -- I appreciate that. :-) This is/was my first Wikipedia article (which, just FYI, I felt inspired to do after reading The Long Tail, so all I'm trying to do is show that it's worthy of keeping. Veganguy 00:16, 13 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
