This article is mostly a copy of http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/freedom.asp and is as far as I can tell wholly made up of original research about a non-notable invention of its author, [[user:CodeAdams|CodeAdams]]. The article cites no reliable sources, and portions of it are written in the first person. (indeed, the "History" section proclaims: ''“The FreeDOM technique was invented by Adam Smith on September 28, 2007. FreeDOM refers to freely using the browser DOM by updating it dynamically through socket communication.”'') Some of its content is potentially relevant to the article about [[Comet (programming)]].

*'''Delete''' per nom. Seems to have no other mentions other than primary source article on codeproject. It would be easier to decide to keep if this project had a presence on SourceForge/GoogleCode/etc, had existed for more than a few days, had a non-trivial number of users/contributors, and had articles or references on other notable websites. See [[WP:NOR|no original research]] and [[WP:MADEUP|no madeup things]] and [[WP:NOTABILITY|notability]]. -- [[User:Bovineone|Bovineone]] 16:58, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

*'''Delete''' - as noted above --[[User:Barista|Barista]] | a/k/a マイケル | [[User_talk:Barista|T]]/[[Special:Contributions/Barista|C]] 17:32, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

*'''Delete'''. [[User:CodeAdams]] is probably Adam Smith--the inventor of FreeDOM. The article is mostly [[WP:NOR|original research]].-- [[User:Mumia-w-18|Mumia-w-18]] 07:14, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

*'''Delete'''. Because of the strong promotional tone, if this were not already at AfD, a G11 speedy deletion might be considered. The absence of sources implies there is no way to demonstrate notability. [[User:EdJohnston|EdJohnston]] 13:44, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
