::No Articles on Wikipedia - so no they should not be added.

:::That's incorrect. This has come up before. Please review the comment I made to [[User:MrOllie|MrOllie]]:

::::If you review the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Stand-alone lists#Selection criteria|selection criteria]] in [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Stand-alone lists|WP:SAL]], nowhere does it mention any [[Wikipedia:Notability|notability]] requirements for list entries. The [[Wikipedia:Notability|Wikipedia article on notability]] specifically states "[notability guidelines] do not directly limit the content of an article or list." The [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Stand-alone lists#Selection criteria|selection criteria]] mention notability as a ''common selection criteria'' but, since this is not mentioned on the discussion page nor in the lead section of the list, it '''does not apply to this list'''. Please recall that notability criteria for a Wikipedia article do not apply to entries in lists.

Line 98:

==SPAM==

This page is nothing but a list of external links which is totally in contravention of [[WP:Spam]]. I suggest this list either be removed completely or stripped down to remove external links to companies or products which are not notable (don't have an article on WIkipedia). Unless anyone comes up with an argument to the contrary I may start removing some of the spam links.

:Do you intend to remove entire entries or just the external links? I support removing the direct external links. Before deleting each, please consider whether they can be converted to references. I have added another banner. --[[User:Kvng|Kvng]] ([[User talk:Kvng|talk]]) 15:19, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

:: The question I think is what is the criteria for inclusion? On many of these lists it is notability which is defined by having an article on Wikipedia, if not for the application itself at least for the company which produces it. As very few of the items listed have Wikipedia pages then maybe they should be converted to references.

:::I've tidied it up making external links into references and removing red links. I think there's a lot of items which need to be removed as there are no sources but I think it's an improvement.
