Talk:Graphical Network Simulator-3

As near as I can tell this article is as good as lifted from the only linked reference, which is an advertisement for the product in question. Wikipedia is not a place to copy a company's descriptions (WP:NOR) of their own products for promotional purposes (WP:PROMOTION), and said description is generally not sufficient to quality for notability (WP:IMPORTANCE). This could eventually be a good article for a good topic, but as it stands it's certainly not. MssngrDeath (talk) 13:15, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
 * I've tagged it with these issues specifically. I'm debating whether or not it would be a good point in time, though, for this article to exist. Will it become more popular among the community? If it doesn't become notable soon, it may as well face a deletion. FosterHaven (talk) 07:23, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I agree that the article could use a proper rewrite to match the quality standards that we've come to expect from other software related articles - at the moment it's more like a stub really. As for the notability point - I think this subject is notable and deserves an article. GNS3 has been around for ages and it is a vital tool used by Network Engineers around the world to simulate networks both for testing out configurations before they are applied to actual network infrastructure and also as a tool used for learning. From what I know, GNS3 isn't a commercial product and isn't a for-profit business - it's a free/open-source project. --Pavithran (talk) 09:02, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Moved the article to: Graphical_Network_Simulator-3 while using GNS3 for the redirect. Trying to re-write the article now :)
