- Neither of those are reasons to delete. But the article fails to assert notability, which gets into the realm of speedy-deletion. Needs minimal commentary and ref about why it's a notable product; just becoming a long description is not enough. DMacks (talk) 18:33, 28 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- My previous comment "fails to assert notability" is a policy-based reason. Just because the nom that started us is invalid doesn't mean the resulting discussion can't progress (for example, if someone procedurally closes it, I would immediately re-file with this new nom, and we'd just all have wasted our time).

- Sorry, I didn't see your comment, it blends in with the other bureaucratic notes. Whoever closes this AfD might also miss your "vote".
- Articles that do not assert their notability (e.g. through references) are not automatically eligible for deletion. Editors who advocate for deletion should research notability of the topic WP:BEFORE nominating or supporting an AfD. Realize that from my POV, quickly dismissing this ill-formed AfD saves time and if you chose to refile, that would be wasting time. ~KvnG 02:12, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- That's not exactly correct - if the nominator doesn't provide a policy-based rationale, but someone else does afterwards, that second person effectively becomes the nominator. In this case, your "procedural keep" !vote is invalidated by DMacks citing WP:NOT. (In case you don't think I know what I'm talking about, I just NAC-ed an AfD using SK#1.) And look, my time was wasted explaining this. Ansh666 01:16, 1 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect to Shanda. --Odie5533 (talk) 13:26, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect per Odie. I see some coverage in GNews search, but majority is of the press release/product announcement type. If someone can find a good source (like Ez Mini), it can be remade. Ansh666 01:16, 1 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
