Proposed deletion of Fabasoft Folio Cloud


The article Fabasoft Folio Cloud has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * No references. No basis for notability. Page has been here almost two years - sufficient time to establish notability and locate good secondary sources.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

 * I've added a number of references to counter the concerns regarding sourcing. Is this now ok? Wwallace1314 (talk) 12:55, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I am glad to see someone is helping out that article. However, please note that press releases or other sources published by the company are not considered reliable. Please remove the references to press releases or replace them with appropriate sources. Also please use a template such as   to format web page citations so the References section is more informative and properly laid out. Finally, please read over policy and help pages about citing sources and locate some real secondary sources (e.g. independently published magazine and news articles) to establish notability for Folio Cloud. Thanks for pitching in,  Joja  lozzo  13:08, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the feedback. I have removed all press releases. I have included the citing format suggested throughout the article. I have located more external sources - the problem is that the company is based in Austria and is most prominent in the German speaking DACH region - press coverage of Fabasoft Folio Cloud is therefore almost exclusively in German (hence why I originally opted for press releases, seeing as the company covers the translations themselves) - I realize though that press releases and other sources produced by the company do not represent a valid substitute for third-party sources - I would only consider them for the purpose of providing more detailed information and not in an attempt to gain artificial notability. Further feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks again for your help! Wwallace1314 (talk) 15:05, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Nice work. I have removed the deletion proposal tag. Since the product is international, I think we will be able to locate additional good English language sources in the future. I also removed the extra external links that remained from your previous citations. handles the linking using the url parameter so there is no need to include a URL outside the template and you only need to wrap the template in a tag without any other text. I appreciate your efficient response to my proposal. Thank you,  Joja  lozzo  16:40, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
