Non-notable editing program created by non-notable company. A Google News Archive search returns only one source, but clicking on the result returns a blank page. Cunard (talk) 18:30, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

| “ | Dear Administrator,
I'd like to know why the page I inserted yesterday has signed for deletion. It doesn't explicit promote any product, but it tells about the idea of takin 1:1 pictures from digital cameras (very difficult thing). I don't understand why other similar software pages like Corel Photo Paint or Photoshop do not have such problems. Awaiting your answer with interest. Best Regards, Marco Carboni |

- Delete. It's specific to closed industry (jewellery), no independent sources, not even web forums. Even if all New York gem traders had it installed they'd keep their mouths shut. NVO (talk) 18:43, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Not only can I confirm the negative result from a Google News Archive search described above, but even when I tried more general web searches I was unable to find any independent coverage, only commercial plugs etc. JamesBWatson (talk) 07:03, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - no coverage in reliable sources to establish notability -- Whpq (talk) 15:40, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - I was looking for "actual size pictures" from within the wikipedia search engine. The only result that answered my question was alo photo scan. That's the only solution that natively creates 1:1 actual size shots. I think this is an important information for anyone lookingfor how to easily take 1:1 pictures for his products (this is a common need, not only a jewelry need). It's a commercial solution, yes, the authors did work hard on that. There are not many forums about it 'cause it is a 3 years old software. If you want to delete it there is no problem in that. I just wanted to express my point of view. Thank you for your time. -- marco.carboni (talk) 22.36:40, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. No reliable, independent sources that I can find, lacks notability, and reads like an advert. I also did some general web searches, and all I found are what appear to be marketing sites/videos/etc. likely made by the developer. --Transity (talk • contribs) 14:20, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
