The subject of the cited Wired Magazine is "an unassailable obfuscation scheme", which is unrelated to the "List of obfuscators for .NET". The "List of obfuscators for .NET" page has no content that relates to the Wired Magazine article. Another wiki page Obfuscation (software) does relate to the Wired Magazine article; such article is not labeled AfD.[[User

 * I'd only created the article as a redirect to another, and 12 years ago at that, so I don't mind. In any case, I have no opinion on whether the article as it stands should stay or go. - furrykef (Talk at me) 21:44, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as this is a list with information which at best could be acceptable as is, but the information and sources is still actually questionable for keeping as its own article thus Delete at least for now and then evaluate if this can in fact be its own article.
