Must Have PocketPC Software
While I can't find an exactly matching case at What Wikipedia is not, this is a subjective guide and original research which does not belong in an encyclopedia. Thue | talk 13:15, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * How about 'inherently POV'? Inclusion of a piece of software on this list is entirely subjective. Either way, delete this. Radiant_* 13:38, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete: It is inherently POV, therefore it must not stay. Geogre 15:13, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as original research ('must have' is inherently subjective). --InShaneee 15:35, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Note that the author seems to be trying to create a set of 'how to' articles for his PDA. DJ Clayworth 15:40, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, and gently tutor the author on Wikipedia editing policy. -- The Anome 15:53, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)
 * I misunderstood the purpose of the Wikipedia, having seen Wiki's implemented on other sites such as XDA Developers being a source of useful structured information. If its meant to be only collection of stale historical facts meant to settle pub disputes I apologize.  I was initially excited by a central repository of all knowledge, but if How To articles are deemed inappropriate I hope we never have to rely upon the Wikipedia to bootstrap us from the next fall of civilization.

 * Wikipedia is hardly a collection of stale historical facts. It's constantly updated and added to. We've got articles on recent stuff like Kenny McCormick and Harry Potter, but unfortunately, articles aren't collections of historical external links. Delete. Mgm|(talk) 16:54, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete. User blanked page. Nestea 22:15, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete for lack of nobility. Nestea 01:26, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * The originator blanked the page and 'revoked his permission to publish'. I think we may take this as the author requesting deletion. (no vote - already voted) DJ Clayworth 19:05, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Although he cannot revoke permission since he licensed the content under a free license when he sent it, and thus we can "fork" it and work with the previous version. However, this must go ;) drini &#9742; 19:30, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Delete I very seriously doubt there's a way to NPOV this. You 20:46, Jun 5, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete: POV list. Wikibofh 20:57, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
