Binfer

Binfer (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log • AfD statistics)

Unambiguous promotion for non-notable software product, article by single-issue user. I was not able to find any significant third-party coverage, and not one Google News hit. This fails WP:GNG. Haakon (talk) 17:16, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Software-related deletion discussions.
  • Delete - no independent sources cited to show notability, and none found. JohnCD (talk) 17:22, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

depend on what keyword you searched for: Try searching: "private P2P software for direct file sharing". Binfer shows up as 5th result. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Globos2009 (talk • contribs) 17:28, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just did. Three results: Binfer home page; scribd.com, which is editable/addable-to and therefore not a valid reference; finally, a very quickly updated copy of this discussion on a userpage here at Wikipedia. In time, there will be references that count. Binfer is too young yet to be notable enough to get an article here. We celebrate success (and record some failures), but we do not promote.

  • Strong delete. Non-notable software, original author seeks primarily to promote. (I originally tagged this with a PROD.) - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 17:30, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete without prejudice (subject to references...) I tagged it for spam. No references given - and there don't seem to be many around. There is a slight problem looking for this, as there is a very similarly named thing (an "expert system shell containing an inference engine based on Bayesian statistics" whatever that might be...). I'm puzzled by this software. There's no mention of cost - and no mention of 'free' either. Has to be one or the other. It seems very recent, which could explain the lack of outside references. Could take off, or vanish without a trace. Time will tell. (Don't you hate people who use cliches?) Peridon (talk) 18:30, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A start. Add it to the article and see what else you can find. Usually 7 days for an AfD, unless nothing is happening and the result is very obvious. Peridon (talk) 19:57, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, obvious spam, original research, and not even resembling an encyclopedia article. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 19:52, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Spam. Joe Chill (talk) 19:57, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Source provided (masternewmedia.com) is a single paragraph in an article about a dozen other file transfer tools. This is not significant coverage. Miami33139 (talk) 23:58, 11 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
