The result was keep. Notability appears to have been clearly proven during the course of the debate by Cunard and further concerns with the article are manageable enough to be resolved by regular editing. (A quick review of it showed that there is nothing really urgent, but some sections resemble company website info to some degree) Sjakkalle (Check!) 08:48, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Major COI issues, including one editor involved with the article and the company founder correcting his own name. If we can get an NPOV write-up of this, it can be saved, but in the current form, it's a NPOV nightmare. Nate • (chatter) 09:44, 5 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I posted the following on Friday on this talk page:Nate, but thought it was more appropriately posted here. Also, welcome Shortbrother to the Wikipedia community, way to be bold with your first contribution.
Hi, I started this article and would like to discuss your reasons for deletion. I understand that I am the primary editor with few exceptions, but can that be an argument since I can't exactly seek out other users to edit it? I am an advocate for NPOV as well; please let me know if I can improve the article. Thanks for your dedication to improving Wikipedia! Kaitlin510 (talk) 19:54, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete already. No reliable sources. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 00:49, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]- Keep per Cunard, multiple sources exist.

- Strong keep per this Google News Archive search. There are multiple articles from Forbes magazine as well as PR Newswire, Business Wire, and a number of other reliable sources. The article doesn't appear to be that spammy in its current form. I can only find fault with the section titled Hyland Software#Corporate Culture which contains several paragraphs of promotional material. I've since removed that. The article should not be deleted. This company is notable due the wide media coverage it has received. Cunard (talk) 01:13, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
