ADAPA

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

At first look this article seems to have some good citations, but they're all written by employees of the software developer, Zementis Inc. The one exception, ' Rattle: A Data Mining GUI for R', is a trivial mention. I've looked but haven't located any better independent sourcing. Given the lack of independent sourcing I think this fails the general notability guideline and should be deleted. MrOllie (talk) 16:36, 29 November 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete It looks like this article was tagged for speedy deletion, which was rejected as not blatantly promotional. In my opinion, this article still reads like an advertising whitepaper. The main contributor to this article, Sunsetsky, has almost exclusively only contributed to this article and the closely related PMML article; there are possible WP:COI issues here. But the main problem is lack of independent reliable sources for ADAPA. I could not find any independent sources in Google books, Google scholar, or a general Google search. While I consider the peer-reviewed publication references in the article to be reliable, with the single except noted above, I could not call them independent. If independent sources are found, I would change my recommendation to keep and improve the article. Mark viking (talk) 21:46, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
