Non notable software. No citations or references. Nothing in article indicates notability. CynofGavuf 19:29, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Software-related deletion discussions. -- Ray^Talk 21:03, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Keep - sources can be found about it, such as [1], [2], [3]. It's difficult to find any in-depth coverage, though. Robofish (talk) 23:37, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment if kept, it really needs to be renamed, there are so many more notable pieces of software called "Paintbrush". 70.29.208.247 (talk) 05:34, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I agree. For example, there has been a program called "Paintbrush" for MS-DOS since the 1980s. Perhaps this could be renamed to Paintbrush (Macintosh software) or something? JIP | Talk 07:37, 18 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Reply I do not understand why this is being deleted, the program can be found on a list of Mac software on wikipedia, and yet there was no link to any sort of page, so I created one so that people would be able to get reliable info on the program, but then the article is immediately put up for deletion??

• Weak delete. The above sources definitely don't satisfy WP:N. I couldn't find additional coverage in reliable secondary sources. — Rankiri (talk) 14:46, 18 April 2010 (UTC)— Rankiri (talk) 14:46, 18 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. I don't see in-depth coverage here. The Softpedia link is a download page, which is practically automatically generated, not a review. The other two blogs have roughly a paragraph each. Pcap ping 16:04, 22 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This article should be renamed to something other than Paint (Software), but it should not be deleted. The article just needs to be expanded--Alpha Quadrant (talk) 21:03, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: The sources that have been found aren't significant coverage. Fails WP:N. Joe Chill (talk) 00:37, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nom. --Nuujinn (talk) 17:07, 30 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: There is nothing notable about this software and nothing interesting going for it. It's also presumably a generally unknown piece of third-party software for a Mac. Yousou (talk) 19:58, 30 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
