Electronic leash

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Not a notable concept / likely WP:OR. This article isn't about wireless shock collars for dogs, but about finding wireless devices. No useful sources; the three references are a dead page about Bluetooth Low Energy, and two trademark offices claiming the term is not trademarked. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 19:26, 26 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep/merge There's a broad concept here that's also covered by articles including electronic article surveillance; electronic tagging, geo-fence and specific technologies such as Bluetooth, Tile; &c. We should find a sensible alternative to deletion. Andrew🐉(talk) 22:34, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Sure, the article contents are similar to notable topics which already have articles, but is there any evidence whatsoever the term "electronic leash" is in use for anything other than dog collars? power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 01:57, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. Hyperbolick (talk) 01:47, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete due to being to generic of a term and not having any products that based on it. Except for maybe Bluetooth as a general implementation of "electronic leash" like technology with some of the things it's used for, but that aside this is to vague of a concept, Wikipedia isn't a dictionary, and the article is way to original research heavy anyway. To the point where if you got rid of it all the article would be is a basic definition of the term and sentence about there not being any products that use it. Which totally isn't worth an article. It's not even worth merging. Otherwise, what are you going to do, merge "for the generic term of electronic leash no US trade mark[2] nor UK trade mark[3] is valid or otherwise pending for this generic term of product" into some random place in the Bluetooth article? Because that's the only thing that's referenced. Not likely. --Adamant1 (talk) 05:09, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: Topic is overly broad and ill defined and the content of the article is WP:OR and WP:SYNTH from other related concepts.   // Timothy ::  talk  16:53, 27 September 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete- I've been pondering what to do with this for a while as part of my buzzword cleanup efforts. Now that I've read through this AfD I agree it's not actually a distinct topic, but a hodgepodge of stuff that' s already covered elsewhere. I don't see much use for this.

 * Delete, It’s got nothing new, I agree with above, does not meet notability. Alex-h (talk) 09:55, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
