Speedy contested. Advertising of a non-notable software utility. Wtshymanski (talk) 19:53, 9 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- KEEP appears notable in context — Preceding unsigned comment added by MacNighttt (talk • contribs) 15:49, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep with a bit of cleanup and proper sourcing rather than what people thought of the software, it will survive future deletion votes if any come up. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 18:39, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment by nominator. No Google hits showing up except the company's own Web site. Reviews are not references. No credible referenced assertion that this is a notable product. --Wtshymanski (talk) 15:38, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I haven't yet looked into notability, but must point out that the assertion that there are "no Google hits showing up except the company's own web site" is blatantly untrue, and that reviews are perfectly acceptable as references if they are from independent reliable publications. Phil Bridger (talk) 22:27, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I missed the Facebook page and the Youtube promotional video, also the Pirate Bay download site. I perhaps should have said "no significant Google hits"; I keep forgetting how literal-minded we can be around here. --Wtshymanski (talk) 15:56, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Why don't you just give it a miss. This is not your encyclopedia as you seem to believe and you do not get to decide what articles are allowed to remain and what must be deleted. 86.157.171.171 (talk) 18:00, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Probably does a good job - I couldn't see anyone dissing it. Does sound rather like a cooling device... However, apart from http://www.pcmag.com/slideshow_viewer/0,3253,l=261510&a=261510&po=56,00.asp which may be reliable but is rather brief and more of a list entry, I could find nothing to fit WP:RS in ten pages of ghits.

- Delete - article is absolutely not notable, wp is not ad catalog for software sales. There are many utilities - most free - that analyze disk usage and find duplicates. Also, how come there are no sources at all? EnTerr (talk) 05:01, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
