Market analysis for product software
Original research. Non encyclopedic. --Woohookitty 23:58, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep. As with Tradeoff between time-to-market and quality, there seems to be very little in this article that could qualify as original research. The author of both articles has written more articles on marketing, and while I have doubts myself whether marketing is a science it most certainly is encyclopedic. This article deserves a number of cleanup tags (and probably a name change), but I don't see VfD material here. Rl 07:22, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge with market analysis (otherwise we could get a lot of near-identical articles on Market research for ). 09:09, Mar 30, 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep and cleanup/rename as necessary, as useful, informative example of market analysis. Kappa 17:23, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep I'm happy with the name; because the information is specific to software. The author seems to be part of wikiproject:method engineering; which is an academic project using wikipedia. The people involved just don't know the rules yet. Please don't discourage them they are producing some excellent content on project management etc. :ChrisG 13:29, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
