The result was   delete. The consensus is that there is not sufficient evidence of notability, and that the fact that all the links are weblinks rather wikilinks indicates that the list does not consist of notable entries  Phantom Steve / talk &#124; contribs \ 02:30, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

The article's title gives a clear idea about the context of article.
 * Delete — Not notable, article lacks sufficient context. C(u)w(t)C(c) 10:44, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * CSD A1 defines context as "If you are able to search for sources, then the article does have enough context. This criteria should only be used when you have no idea what the article is about."

 * Delete Lists should consist of notable entries. If any of this was backed by good references, could merge to Pomodoro technique but as it stands, without references, just delete. --Colapeninsula (talk) 13:18, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I've added many references to the entries in article which are from notable independent sources. I will not suggest merging this article with Pomodoro technique because this list is likely to expand and that would lead Pomodoro technique as unwieldy. trunks_ishida (talk) 23:37, 18 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep and improve I've added several references to the article.
 * My reasons for keep:
 * This is a notable topic. A search on Google(or any other search engine) shows that. I agree that not all entries are notable but software like Tomighty, Pomodairo and Orkanizer are actually notable. This page had around 1400 pageviews in past 30 days. Page view statistics
 * There are many articles Wikipedia which could classify as 'software catalogues'. Actually there is a category [Category:Lists of software] which deals with articles like this.
 * There are many notable entries left out, external links to be improved and many discrepancies to be corrected but this shouldn't be a reason to delete an article.

 * Delete. Notability is not the issue, the problem is that this is a weblink catalogue, which Wikipedia is not for (WP:NOTDIR). A list of any notable software can be part of the main article Pomodoro Technique.   Sandstein   08:42, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
