 * Keep Article is no advertising. Describes a serious market trend. --Bmwdriver76 08:27, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Article does not violate the 'Wikipedia:Neutral point of view' policy because it draws attention to a growing tendancy for cellular content to be freely accessed via multiple exclusive websites. --gregular01 01:15, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep Article needs expanding, and needs to have a bit of crystal ball-ism deleted, but doesnt' seem to violate anything. PresN 15:44, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
 * It seems to violate our No original research policy and our policy that Wikipedia is not an advertising billboard. This is in part because the article is little more than the sort of puff blurb that one sees in corporate brochures, full of buzzwords but devoid of information.  There's pretty much zero content in the article that tells one about the concept of free mobile content, and I'm highly suspicious that the intent of this article is actually to have the phrase "free mobile content" linked to the web sites listed in the external links section, rather than to have an encyclopaedia article on some subject.  The article tells the reader that there is a "new revolution in place" and a "new trend" that is "contributing at the democratization the mobile content value chain".  Until this trend/revolution is actually documented in some secondary source, there can be no encyclopaedia article on the subject of free mobile content.  The article, of course, cites no sources.  I can find borderline sources on the subject of free mobile content (none of which support the notion that there's a "new revolution" or a "new trend") such as  and, but they can just as easily be discussed in mobile content, which seems the better place to address anything that can be said about mobile content, free or otherwise.  Ironically for an article that purports to discuss content, there's no actual content in this article.  There's nothing worth keeping here.  Redirect to mobile content or just delete, according to taste. Uncle G 18:00, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per Uncle G. Looks suspiciously to me like an article created only as an excuse for the weblinks. Fan-1967 16:19, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete The concept may be notable, but there's nothing there worth keeping. (Uncle G said it in a more wordry manner, but this seems adequate.) &mdash; Arthur Rubin | (talk) 00:25, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Article is too stubby and will benefit from citations.  If not deleted, then at least get rid of any spammy hyperlinks.  68.50.203.109 07:15, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
