I found nothing that would make this software pass WP:N. SL93 (talk) 00:11, 7 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Port forwarding.  --Lambiam 13:09, 7 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as non-notable. Reason why this is notable is not stated, nor could I find any reason to grant notability. Article is unreferenced. A quick google returns little beyond forums (often talking about "port forwarding" on a PC rather than this software) and download sites. Pit-yacker (talk) 14:15, 7 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • But isn't the article title a reasonable search term? PC-Port-Forwarding is currently mentioned in our article Port forwarding, so the latter is a good redirect target.  --Lambiam 00:30, 8 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • I'm not sure it is a reasonable search term. Perhaps PC port fowarding might be useful as a re-direct. However, I dont see the need for all the hyphens used in PC-Port-Forwarding - it would almost certainly require an immediate move to PC port fowarding. The only point "PC" is mentioned in Port forwarding is a link to this article. As for whether PC-Port-Forwarding is mentioned in port forwarding, I'm inclined to suggest the article shouldn't be a directory of software to do this - and the section in question should be removed.

• Delete unreferenced software article, no indication of notability. As above, the name with dashes is not likely to be a search term. Dialectric (talk) 23:05, 8 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
