The result was delete. While a strict numeric count indicates no consensus, there are at least two single purpose accounts and one other who states (s)he is a representative of the company. This aside, the sourcing concerns were never addressed. Seraphimblade Talk to me 03:19, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete This company (or product, I am not sure which) is not notable. I was the earlier prod-er of this article.  The article's creator (also the person who removed the prod) is employed by the company, violating WP:NPOV and WP:AUTO UnitedStatesian 19:33, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep: Zitku is neither a company nor a product. Zitku is a community research project( a search engine and directory). The project performs searches on over 1 million human edited pages and publishes results. The project also has been a featured project/article on Aboutus.org 29th March and has been reviewed by webmasters at Aboutus.org. WP:AUTO is about autobiographies which is not the case here, I am not Ziktu and neither am I the only person in this project. Zitku is a notable community research project funded jointly by a University and a private company. The article does not violate WP:NPOV and WP:AUTO Amit 07:27, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep: Its new and not popular but it is a search engine and a crawler. How many crawlers are there in the world ? A 500 max, quite notable. Deserves a place in the encyclopedia, if this were a paperback endition, I would probably skip its inclusion. Removing the prod was not a good thing. I couldnt find anything that qualifies this article under WP:NPOV. UnitedStatesian can you point out how is the point of view not neutral ? Smithowen 08:58, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep: I have read the discussion page and i feel the article does not violate WP:NPOV. I am unsure about WP:AUTO, my arguement is "should US citizens be not allowed to start an article on USA ?". I agree with what is written in WP:AUTO about autobiographies, but the rule does not apply here. I recommend we keep this article. Ritugupta rg 20:59, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
