Nokia DX200

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Prod contested by User:Petri Krohn, so starting an AfD. This article contains no claim of notability for the product. It is completely unreferenced. WP is not a catalog of products. While there are truly notable products (like the Corvette, or the Macintosh), this isn't one of them. Mikeblas 14:05, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Speedy Keep It is a specialised subject and as such information is not readily available since it's a proprietary product. It is used in telephone exchanges and there are a handful if different types running the world's telephone systems. Other's include System X (telephony), System Y, DMS-100. Google Books and Google Scholar have ample information to establish notability. However, I agree with the nom that this (and the other articles I've linked) are in dire need of sourcing. → AA (talk) — 14:52, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep - In fact the DX200 may be more notable than the Corvette, or the Apple Macintosh. It is used by a far larger number of people, and produced more revenue for its maker. Anyway, I have rewritten the article with references and claims of notability. -- Petri Krohn 12:54, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. The vast majority of people who use this product don't know they're using it. More relevant to this discussion, most people who aren't using this product don't know they're not using it, either; it doesn't have features notable to anybody outside the industry, and the end user isn't even aware of its presence. As such, I think fancruft applies. -- Mikeblas 21:03, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep - per above. Greswik 15:09, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
