* '''Delete''' Cnet is an okay source although it's just one of the blogs so not their best reference of all time. Ajaxian may have a 'professional quality articles' it doesn't make them an RS. The webmonkey other then not appearing to be an RS, is almost a trivial mention. So one minor source is all we have. Hardly qualifies as notable.

Hello, I am the user behind the ip 173.66.142.225. My PROD of this article was removed as vandalism. I would like to nominate this article because it has insufficient sources to indicate that this subject passes WP:WEB and there has been insufficient coverage of this to indicate that it is notable. I would also like to note that this article was created by a single purpose account and another user who has been spam username blocked. Myownusername (talk) 19:16, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

- Are you counting the iPhone store or one of the external links? Nil Einne (talk) 22:06, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
- Weak delete at this time. Of the "three sources", one is obviously good (CNET), one is questionable (Ajaxian, a blog, I'm not familiar with whether it really carries any weight), and one doesn't count at all (the app's page at the iPhone store is essentially a first party source and makes no assertion of notability,, all it proves is that this is an iPhone app; not all iPhone apps are notable). So we're left with, at most, 1.5 sources. I don't believe that 5 paragraphs in CNET and a blog entry demonstrate that this meets WP:N or WP:WEB. Add a few more sources and I'd be inclined to keep. Oren0 (talk) 20:06, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
- Also, and maybe this is just me, but the article in its current form reads a little bit like an advertisement. Oren0 (talk) 20:27, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
- Delete Does not have "significant coverage" in reliable sources as required by WP:N. ukexpat (talk) 20:18, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
- Neutral I looked for sources to possibly expand this for DYK, and found only the sources in the article. Good luck.... Synergy 20:24, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
- Neutral. Just wanted to point out that chatzilla sux, use pidgin. Gurch (talk) 20:32, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
- Delete - Per Oren0 and Ukexpat.— Dædαlus Contribs 21:04, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
- Keep and heavily revise. CNET is a major source and the blog Ajaxian is a legitimate tech news source with scores of professional-quality articles. The Webmonkey mention (in "Further Reading") is arguably a third, but it's marginal. I agree we should not count the product pages. We have two strong sources and one weak source; if we could just find a better third source this would be a strong keep. As for the writing, that is obviously in need of improvement, but quality is no reason to delete as opposed to revising. -moritheilTalk 21:12, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

- Speedy Keep: Bad faith nomination. I simply cannot WP:AGF based on the contribution history and actions of the nominator, see Special:Contributions/173.66.142.225 and Special:Contributions/Myownusername.
Nominator attempted both CSD A7 (web) and CSD G11 (spam) for an established article, [1] [2] neither of which were applicable. A7 does not apply to software and this article is obviously not spam.
Immediately after these two CSDs were declined [3] 173.66.142.225 then attempted a {{prod}} [4] which was also rightly removed as vandalism. [5]
173.66.142.225 also reported an older account/user at WP:UAA [6] and managed to get that user banned. [7]
This article was not created by User:Mibbit as 173.66.142.225 has revised [8] [9] his nomination above to allege, see the article's revision history. The article was originally created by User:Axod. [10] [11] A CSD A7 was attempted twice when the article was created. The article was userfied, [12] rewritten, moved back to article space, and has since been edited by many other editors.
173.66.142.225 also left an odd reply on User:Mixwell's talk page when he was warned for abusing CSD/prod. [13]
173.66.142.225 / Myownusername has gone on to try to create trouble for other users on WP:AN/I when they attempted to deal with the blatant vandalism and disruption. [14] [15] Notice that the nominator referred to this as Rollback and called for outright banning of an established and reliable editor even though it was clear his prod was reverted with Twinkle.
These are not the actions of a novice or newbie editor nor are these actions I would expect from any experienced or established editor.
