I tagged this for speedy but as it was nominated once before, here we are and my searches simply found nothing better at all to suggest better notability and improvement and I'm simply not gathering how this is solidly notable from that first AfD. Notifying the only still active past users, , and  and also close article contributor. SwisterTwister  talk  01:46, 28 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Strong Keep It is entirely notable and easily passes WP:GNG. It is a highly specialized piece of software, which is still well used and well respected in the industry. The article has not been updated for some time, but it is still used and gives a good description of what it is, links code generation and object-relational mapping, and describes well a complex and very expensive piece of software, at the forefront of the industry. Why is it being nominated again? I think this nomination is vexatious. If you wanted to know what the previous article AFD was about, read the previous AFD. scope_creep talk 12:38  28 December 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete - the only independent ref currently in the article, infoq.com, is little more than a feature listing and does not clarify why the software is notable. The only source mentioned in the past afd that meets the criterea of significant independent coverage is the 'Pro LINQ Object Relational Mapping with C# 2008' book, the pages of which do not appear to be web-accessible. On its own, this single book ref is not sufficient to clearly establish notability, and the other refs are incidental mentions, blogs and a self-published book, none of which establish notability. Complexity and expense are not criteria used to determine notability. Dialectric (talk) 06:16, 9 December 2015 (UTC)
