Windows Live WiFi Center

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

I propose this page for deletion. Shortly after announcing the rebranding of the wifi suite to MSN development of the WiFi Center was dropped, see: I don't see the point in keeping the article as a "WiFi Center was an application..." page, it was such a little known prgram anyway.

 * Delete Not worthy of its own article. Cloveoil 12:48, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge to Windows Live or MSN. A look at Windows Live shows that most, if not all of the individual features are covered with their own articles.  I don't know that that is the best way to do things, but I do think this AfD isn't going to resolve the overall concerns, since any that exist with it will likely apply to others.  Thus I suggest a more comprehensive approach.   FrozenPurpleCube 16:38, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment An overhaul of the Windows Live related articles is planned, including many merges and deletions, to bring the number of small articles/stubs down and create a sense of organisation. --A Cornish Pasty 18:30, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge with MSN WiFi Hotspots. First of all I disagree that it's a "little known" program and that is no reason to delete an article. Secondly, as a beta tester for the program the official announcement I received was that the BETA program has been discontinued - however according to one of your sources (link 2), it is quite sure that development will continue but as a different program (maybe MSN WiFi Center). And also I don't think that having some programs merged with the main Windows Live article and some other programs having their own page creates "a sense of organisation". Having a look at MSN shows that the individual MSN services are NOT merged with the main article. Pikablu0530 23:47, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Many things on wikipedia are on old things. Getting rid of this would be like erasing the article on old tv shows just because they aren't on anymore. The wikipedia statute on deletion is...
 * Not because a project was canceled.68.202.17.86 00:56, 23 March 2007 (UTC)GR


 * Merge to MSN WiFi Hotspots or Windows Live. I think MSN WiFi Hotspots would be the better choice because as it now stands, MSN WiFi Hotspots has almost no content and might be nominated for deletion on its own.  By merging, we would wind up with one stronger article. Do leave a redirect. Vegaswikian 23:36, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge to MSN WiFi Hotspots. Not being currently (or ever) used is not a reason to delete the content of an article, although it can justify a merge.  Issues of notability aside, I think a merge is appropriate simply on grounds of proper content organisation. -- Black Falcon 21:14, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge to MSN WiFi Hotspots with a redirect in place per Vegaswikian, this is the most reader-friendly solution suggested so far. Burntsauce 17:19, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - merge any useful material elsewhere. There is nothing remotely notable about this. NBeale 07:23, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
