Requested move 19 April 2017

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The result of the move request was: Not moved. If the "Remote" part of the title is incorrect, you could consider moving to Splashtop (software) or similar. &mdash; Martin (MSGJ · talk) 13:48, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

Splashtop Remote → Splashtop – Splashtop is currently a brand for the Splashtop remote access and remote support products. It was previously a brand for a discontinued Linux OS and the article with that discontinued product line content has since been renamed Splashtop OS. Rather than redirecting Splashtop to Splashtop Remote, the Splashtop Remote content should be available at the Splashtop URL because that is the product line that uses the Splashtop brand. Reference http://www.splashtop.com for more info. Tdelchiaro (talk) 00:27, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose, disambiguate: As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia does not limit its interest to current product offerings. Discontinued products are also relevant encyclopedic topics. "Splashtop" is also the name of a company, Splashtop Inc. When considering the page views of both Splashtop and Splashtop OS, and also Splashtop Inc., there is no indication that Splashtop Remote is a proper WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for "Splashtop". —BarrelProof (talk) 21:24, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose for now. What are you going to do with Splashtop Inc. and Splashtop OS? I would guess that if there must be a primary topic for "Splashtop", it would be Splashtop Inc. -- right? And yes whether a product is discontinued matters for its notability going into the future to some degree, but only to some degree. Herostratus (talk) 03:45, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

Unsafe Prod?
Concern over PROD. Supporting references at were removed at a previous edit (at least one was insignificant blog), and I also note apparently unbiased reviews at https://www.macworld.com/article/2030876/review-splashtop-2-a-free-innovative-remote-desktop-mac-ios-app-with-issues.html, https://www.laptopmag.com/reviews/apps/splashtop-remote and http://uk.pcmag.com/splashtop-business-access/91084/review/splashtop-business-access over a period of time. That said issues such as WP:NPOV, promotion, COI editing and spam have and do afflict this article. The recreation from the AfD was reasonable at the point of creation as it addressed the issue of missing sources, though there may have been a COI issue at that point. I've minimally addressed these by removing 2 unnecessary external links.Djm-leighpark (talk) 11:45, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
