ELWO

Does not appear notable; indeed, it seems like nothing more than a robot designed by a university/school robotics class. A few mentions in local media as may be expected when university students do something "interesting" (for lack of a better word), but nothing that appears to satisfy significant coverage in WP:RS that would be indicative of notability. Also apparent WP:COI. Contested PROD. -- Kinu t /c  17:56, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Also, on an unrelated note, the scanned newspaper clippings included in the article may be copyvios in themselves and should be dealt with accordingly. -- Kinu t /c  20:19, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: article-creator, who is only substantial contributor, has blanked the page. I unblanked per drmafd, but the action could be a recognition that the article isn't viable or similar trigger of WP:CSD. DMacks (talk) 07:18, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. I don't see any specific notability for this school project. Local media cover local human-interest items all the time (there are news cites, but it's not serious in-depth coverage except the local-interest angle as far as I can tell) and I don't see in-depth reporting from "RS from afar" (true uninvolved party).

 * Delete - advertisement; "further reading" all irrelevant to THIS article. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  21:12, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete per lack of notability. Such robots are built individually by 10 yrs old in Japan. Anyone who walked in a local school robotic competition there would see dozens of better ones. Materialscientist (talk) 01:57, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
