Guoyu Software

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable subject that fails WP:GNG. No significant coverage at Google at all. There are no reliable sources at all even, as well. No official website even. Not reasonable to have an article. TBrandley 02:51, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - Google News and Books found nothing relevant but considering the company is Chinese, it's likely any sources will not be English. I'm willing to reconsider my vote if Chinese sources are found but if not, it would be better to start this article at the Chinese Wikipedia where it may attract better attention.

 * The Chinese characters for "Guoyu" would be 国语 (Chinese language), 过于 (too much/excessively), and 过誉 (praise too much) WhisperToMe (talk) 14:25, 23 November 2012 (UTC)

 This software company is one of the only Chinese ITIL　software producer in China. As I am learning for ITIL foundation class and their product has been used in the class as a demo. I thought it'd worth to put on Wikipedia. I spent a long time in translating the materials from Baidu Baike (the most influencial online encyclopedia in China) and hope to introduce the world more similar Chinese companies soon. However, I am not sure how to keep my first article from being deleted at the moment. This company's Chinese website is www.bangzhutai.com. Searching by Baidu should work well because that is how I found the information.
 * Delete Neither the company nor its software appear to be notable. (Ahoova ITSM/BSM has been PROD'ed for lack of notability.)  No sources can be found, and the article's author, having been notified of the PROD of Ahoova, merely added a link to the company's Baidu Baike page (essentially a Chinese language Wikipedia knock-off).

 * Delete. Gave it a try, can't find any references either. Dengero (talk) 15:12, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete I cannot even find a website. --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 23:33, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Regarding your question how to keep the article, please add reliable third-party sources to establish verification and notability, English or non-English sources are acceptable. Adding a LinkedIn profile would be considered primary and insufficient. If you are new to citing references, visit Referencing for beginners. Feel free to contact me at my talk page if you need additional help. Cheers! SwisterTwister   talk  06:42, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

 * Suggestion - perhaps userfy the page for the creator? Dengero (talk) 04:38, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment: Using the Chinese name I got no hits on Google News but some mainland sites may not index on Google News WhisperToMe (talk) 01:00, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
