DELETE as a non-notable software product which lacks non-trivial coverage from multiple reliable third party publications. I'm beginning to worry we are lending WP:BIAS to these types of software applications on Wikipedia, but hopefully not in this one instance. JBsupreme (talk) 07:03, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep I've added references to this article. Notability is not temporary. The nom is acting in bad faith in nominating this article and SmartPAR for AfD as he was already aware of a reliable source that covers this subject. This book is linked in the Deletion Review that JBsupreme initiated after he did not like the outcome of the Parchive AfD:
Wang, Wallace (2004-10-25). "Finding movies (or TV shows): Recovering missing RAR files with PAR and PAR2 files". Steal this File Sharing Book (1st ed.). San Francisco, California: No Starch Press. pp. 164–167. ISBN 1-59327-050-X. Retrieved 2009-09-24.
Despite JBsupreme's claims otherwise, the above book gives several pages coverage to this software and also includes a number of screenshots.
