OpenCloud

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Promotional article for a non-notable telecoms product and the small company that makes it. The article was created July 2010 by, an employee of the company. WP:PROD deleted in July 2011 ("advert written by company employee with multiple issues"). Created again by, and again reads like a brochure. There is no substantial contribution by others, and neither editor has contributed to Wikipedia other than to promote this subject. The few references are dismal - one person from the company sitting on a Java Community Process committee isn't evidence that the company is notable. The other references are dead links to analyst reports. So nothing in the article can be verified independently, and there is no deep, independent coverage in reliable sources. The company fails WP:CORP and both it and the company fail WP:GNG. It's been tagged for ref improvement since October 2011 with no sign of improvement.

Note this is unrelated to OpenCloudConsortium, OpenCloudConnect and various projects like php-opencloud which do cloud computing on OpenStack. -- Finlay McWalterᚠTalk 11:58, 28 September 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
