<del>The article is unambiguous advertisement.</del> My request for speedy deletion was granted, although the article was restored when one contributor provided the following reasons: "The article exists for 10 years, addresses a technology used by an open source/commercial community of 25.000 users, won several awards". This reason itself sounds like advertisement to me. Also the "10 years" claim is inaccurate. [[User:Codename Lisa|Codename Lisa]] ([[User talk:Codename Lisa|talk]]) 19:52, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

* '''Speedy delete''' as unambiguous advertising. Topic does seem borderline notable, though: [https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/hh304368(v=vs.100).aspx this article on MSDN] discusses it and I'm able to verify the [https://web.archive.org/web/20080117112203/http://basta-award.de/basta_award/diegewinner.xhtml award].

:* After reworking the article and adding several references to reliable and independent sources, these references have been deleted by [[User:Qwertyus]] with the reason: "popularity is unsubstantiated; sources are either self-published or affiliated, and don't actually establish popularity". This statement is not true. I will re-add the references<ref>https://www.nuget.org/packages/ILNumerics/</ref><ref>http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/ilnumerics</ref><ref>https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/9a67b49d-b0b2-4073-97fd-3f18ba08cc61</ref> in order to proof the visibility of the project. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Numbers303|Numbers303]] ([[User talk:Numbers303|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Numbers303|contribs]]) 15:34, 24 November 2015 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:* A list of alternative projects were added in order to make the topic even more neutral and objective. However, the whole section has been deleted for unclear reasons: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=ILNumerics.Net&diff=next&oldid=692247639 "none of this is reliably sourced by third-party comparisons"].

*'''Delete for now''' as the best I found were some News and browsers links, certainly nothing better for a better article. [[User:SwisterTwister|<
* '''Keep''' To the uninformed Delete voters, it was the first open source quality piece of engineering we took on and that you probably have not seen in performance and made available for free. The firm and project has supported a notable act of furthering good causes, in free grants of 2008 as well as GPL terms beforehand and thereafter. The arguments pointing to commercial nature are dubious at best as the piece of firmware, trackingware and trojanware most of the skeptics, and myself too, carry is commercial in nature too and described on WP. Did you argue to delete them? <small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/31.223.132.167|31.223.132.167]] ([[User talk:31.223.132.167|talk]]) 23:53, 26 November 2015 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
* '''Delete''' There's many other libraries in this field available as open source. ILnumerics is a commercial product. They will have other ways of advertising. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Harbran|Harbran]] ([[User talk:Harbran|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Harbran|contribs]]) 19:01, 26 November 2015 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
* '''Keep'''. [[Special:Contributions/91.44.79.238|91.44.79.238]] ([[User talk:91.44.79.238|talk]]) 11:21, 26 November 2015 (UTC) Clearly, ILNumerics is scientifically relevant – there even exists a diploma thesis about it: http://www.researchgate.net/publication/255988828_ILNumerics_-_High_Performance_Computing_With_.NET_-_Enabling_.NET_as_efficient_platform_for_numerical_computations_and_visualizations It belongs to the MATLAB/R family of scientific computation software all present at Wikipedia helping students and researchers all over the world to solve their problems. Deletion would only make it harder for interested people to find and compare the few programs in this area.
* '''Keep'''. I can’t see any advertising in this article <small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/212.172.128.106|212.172.128.106]] ([[User talk:212.172.128.106|talk]]) 15:02, 27 November 2015 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
*'''Keep''' as the nomination reason (advertising) has been removed.

:*Hi. The guideline governing withdrawal is [[WP:SNOW]]: There is not a snowball's chance in hell that this article may be deleted now. The least you could was to contact me and ask me to change my closure to a "[[WP:NAC|NAC]] keep".
