PORTMEDIA

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

This article was proposed for deletion, but a reviewing administrator declined to delete it because an anonymous user, not removing the proposed deletion tag, wrote on the talk page a comment objecteing to the deletion, and signed it "--anon". This article actually seems to be a fraud. The article interchangably refers to its subject by the name of the claimed product and by the name of the claimed company. It includes a dozen links. Several of the links are to blogs, and following the links brings the reader to the blog's site, but to a page indicating the article is not found. Given the number of links exhibiting this, I have to conclude the links were likely fabricated. The other links are to a search terms ranker and a few articles about other products and companies in this area, but making no reference to this company or product, even though the links lead the reader to believe they will refer to the subject of the article. Many of these links are listed in the references section. In actuality, I could not identify any press about this company or its product. The company's web site, linked from the article, appears to be entirely in a foreign language. Being unable to effectively translate it, I can derive no insight from it. At the least, the subject is not notable. It the most, it is invented. Bsherr (talk) 05:00, 1 August 2010 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, JForget  00:41, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete, I can't find any reliable sources covering this, there is a portmedia project on sourceforge, but this article bears no resemblance to that project. -- Nuujinn (talk) 23:50, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
