A consensus of sorts formed at Talk:Zorin OS is: to take this to AfD again. And so done. Shirt58 (talk) 16:35, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete - Fails WP:GNG. The only third-party sources are reviews from Katherine Noyes, who routinely reviews Linux distros; that doesn't seem to show notability and even if it did, that's the only third-party author who seems to have given Zorin OS any attention at all, which is not enough to establish notability on Wikipedia. DistroWatch does not contribute towards establishing notability as you can simply buy an entry in DistroWatch.  The subject also comes nowhere close to meeting WP:NSOFT in any way. - Aoidh (talk) 23:05, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable. Is there an Ubuntu Wikia?  If so, this is where these Ubuntu fork articles belong. NinjaRobotPirate (talk)
 * Delete&mdash;Yes, there's coverage, but not (in my opinion) significant coverage, nor does the coverage attest to the significance of the distro. Lesser Cartographies (talk) 04:39, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable. Simply not enough independent in-depth sources yet. Yworo (talk) 14:56, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
