The result was   delete for both articles. Obvious consensus to delete Computhink, and only a "weak" keep vote for the software product with two other editors argue the sourcing is insufficient to establish notability. --Bigtimepeace | talk | contribs 04:34, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Computhink

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Non-notable business that provides Electronic Content Management (ECM) / Document Management solutions for secure information sharing and compliance. Already proposed for deletion (not by me) and contested. Google News finds a fair number of hits: but I see nothing more than press releases, routine announcements of personnel changes, or litigation documents.

Also nominating the following page for a software product of this business:

That article's references are all to a single online publication, a Business Solutions magazine online, which does not sound like it represents the sort of broad readership needed to sustain an article on a commercial product. Google News results for the product are also not particularly helpful, either.

 * Weak keep for ViewWise, weak delete for the company. The software is covered a little in a book on GroupWise, and seems to be so in a similar books that are not viewable in google books. Also reviewed in PCQuest and  Express Computer. Merging to GroupWise would be unwieldy since they also support MS Office more recently. Article in Chicago Sun-Times looks like it covers both the company and the product. There are a few more like this in that newspaper and in Daily Herald (Arlington Heights).

 * delete Virillion (talk) 17:47, 16 January 2010 (UTC), could not understand.
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Speedy Delete as this article fails WP:SPAM. None of the source cited are reliable; they all orginate from the company's own press releases. Self-promotion is not the route to establishing notability in accordance with WP:CORP, nor are routine news reports evidence of notability in accordance with WP:NTEMP. Notability to come, perhaps. --Gavin Collins (talk|contribs) 11:19, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
