Roku Server Protocol

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Totally unreferenced. The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing General notability guideline and the more detailed Notability (software) requirement. WP:BEFORE gets me a single mention in passing in a Finish article:. That's a far cry from even borderline. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 10:54, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

 * Comment: I have included 4 references. Software is used in a number of Linux media players. Geertivp (talk) 12:27, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Of the 4 references the Finnish reference may be acceptable for notability, however the remaining 3 look as if they are deriviations of (the same) press release which is of no use for that purpose, as opposed to an independent hands-on review which might be candidates.Djm-leighpark (talk) 09:05, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
 * If you mean, while this looks mildly reliable (student thesis?), it seems that the software is mentioned only in one single paragraph, which rather fails the 'in-depth' requirement and instead lends itself to be dismissed as a 'passing mention'. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 05:44, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
 * My apologies I mis-interpreted what you commented on your opening statement rather than reviewing the reference.Djm-leighpark (talk) 06:53, 25 March 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak Merge: to SoundBridge, Comment: but I do so in the knowledge I am too overloaded to do the merge and am concerned why did not seek this option already or why it was not picked up at WP:BEFORE.Djm-leighpark (talk) 08:31, 28 March 2019 (UTC)

 * Comment: For about 168 reasons I am no longer prepared to do this merge myself and therefore need to withdraw my offer. I would !vote to anyone else offering to do so.  Withdrawing and unwatching this deletion discussion.  Thankyou.  07:50, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
