Plant Design System

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I thought about this for quite a while, but this article is mostly a plug for a piece of software by Intergraph. The references are various links to product pages and the article is more or less the same. I think the general idea of plant design software may meet WP:GNG this article would have to be completely blanked to not be promotional, and if it wasn't created 4 years ago might meet CSD G11. ♥ Solarra ♥ ♪ 話 ♪  ߷  ♀ 投稿 ♀  08:27, 18 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete. I agree with nom.  I think this article represents kind of sneaky attempt to have it both ways with an article that ostensibly is about a broad concept but in fact is an improperly sourced plug for a particular product.  Sources offered don't establish notability for either the product or the concept and Googling didn't turn up anything better.  Msnicki (talk) 15:18, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete: I found no sinificant coverage of the subject – Intergraph SmartPlant 3D. The fact that the article name implies different subject changes nothing in this regard. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk•track) 00:06, 19 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete I was unable to find independent in depth RS regarding this Intergraph product and there were also no RS regarding the term in a more general setting. There is a short blurb on plant design at Chemical engineering, but I would recommend against a redirect, as this term is a proper noun for the Intergraph product. With no RS, this topic fails WP:GNG and should be deleted. --Mark viking (talk) 00:36, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete: I found no significant coverage. This software is non-notable per WP:N. SL93 (talk) 00:09, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
