 * I am the author of the page. Thank you for your opinion ElKevbo. This is certainly not meant to be an advertisement. There's no exchange of interest between me and this software.
 * I am setting up this page solely to increase the awareness of plagarism and academic honestly among students in Hong Kong, and also the whole world, should be of paramount importance.
 * This page allows students to get more information about plagarism detection tools, especially those being employed by many tertiary institutions in Hong Kong currently.

 * As far I know, Veriguide is a freeware developed by CUHK. Indeed, it is not dedicated for the internal use of CUHK only. Universities like the Open University of Hong Kong, Peking University has adopted this software as a plagarism detection device. --Andrew Powner (talk) 15:36, 28 February 2011 (HK time)  — Andrew Powner (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


 * People may have the misunderstanding that this 'Veriguide' is similar to the commercial product 'Verisign' (a product about digital signature). This software is a plagarism freeware. I don't see any point claiming this article to be an advertisement. --Murakami Junji (talk) 19:4, 28 February 2011 (HK time)  — Murakami Junji (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

 * I believe that this page is of great value for university students, as least for those in Hong Kong. It gives information for students who have to use this system for their assignments. I can't see the point of deleting this page for several reasons. First, this system is actually not a commercial product for sale, but instead it is a system to serve students in Hong Kong. Second, for students who have to submit their assignments via this system, this page could provide them with brief information so that they know why they have to let their assignments passing through this system. And third, this page could actually promote academic honesty, and people could understand the use of this kind of system as stated in the page. So I guess this page is still of great value to be kept. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zyziloc (talk • contribs) 15:37, 1 March 2011 (UTC)  — Zyziloc (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Delete This appears to be a piece of software of note only within one institution. The same could be said of Cusis (contributed the previous day by a very similarly-named account name) which I've flagged for notability. (I note also that 3 of the 4 above opinions in this AfD made exactly the same spelling mistake.) AllyD (talk) 23:07, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
