Kid Pix

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I think that this program's general notability is kind of questionable, as, since July 1, 2005, this article's only sole reference has been a link to Craig Hickman's website talking about the early years of Kid Pix, and all throughout this article's (as of right now) entire 13-year history here on Wikipedia, literally nobody has ever seemed to bother with trying to put any shape or form of third-party, reliable sources into the article, which, in that case, I think is certainly enough to make one scratch their head over just how notable this program actually is, and especially if you consider the fact that this is one of those Wikipedia articles that really don't seem to get a whole lot of activity as far as edits are concerned. Also, this article was created way back on February 25, 2005 by an IP editor (as that time was before Wikipedia only allowed registered users to create articles), who clearly does not actually seem to know much about this program aside from being a fan of it. I myself was a huge fan of Kid Pix Studio Deluxe when I was a very young kid, so it does kind of feel painful to do this nomination, but, in the Wikipedia world, we all know pretty well that everyone here should always base all of their edits and actions on objective logic instead of subjective emotion in order to prevent an sort of drama from being lashed on out, and that's exactly what I'm doing here.

 * Comment The application seems to be quite old (1989) and there may be reviews in Mac related magazines. However, the article in question is really terrible (advert language everywhere...). I will try to add some more refs and rewrite (TNT), if I find the time. Pavlor (talk) 09:08, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment I didn't know that there was an Amiga version! Oh well, I guess you always learn something new everyday, don't ya? ;) Also, I know that there's actually a review out there that Bob "Dr. Mac" Levitus wrote for the Houston Chronicle regarding Kid Pix Deluxe 3X way back in, I believe, 2009 or 2010.
