NetAnts

 * – ( View AfD View log )

No indication of notability: no reliable sources (and even the official site is a dead link), a search just turns up download links JohnBlackburne wordsdeeds 19:15, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
 * comment: A search for the Chinese name "网络蚂蚁" (from the article) gives a lot of hits - but I cant say if its notable or not - I do not read Chinese... Christian75 (talk) 18:46, 21 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Oppose. NetAnts was the most successful download manager in China for several years, even though now it quit from history. (enough notability.) Official site may be viewed via Internet Archive. ––虞海 ( Yú Hǎi )  ✍  19:32, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

 * comment The three links above seem to be and interview which only mentions it in passing, a short article which covers it a bit more along with some other software, and a download link. So only two proper sources, only half an article of coverage and not enough for WP:GNG. I did check the page on Chinese Wikipedia but that has no sources, only the dead official link. I've not tried a Google search with the Chinese name as I too would find it too difficult to evaluate the results.-- JohnBlackburne wordsdeeds 18:57, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete, no significant coverage of the software. --Nuujinn (talk) 04:12, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
