List of software companies in Mumbai

Found while new page patrolling, typical WP:NOTDIRECTORY page. Unsustainable list "sourced" only to official webpages. Can be handled with categories. Rehevkor ✉ 16:06, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete classic WP:NOTDIRECTORY, redlink farm, excessive external links and if it sticks around will attract spammers. We wouldn't want a List of pawn shops in New York either. Bottom line, Wikipedia is not your local yellow pages. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 17:02, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This is what categories are for. Rename Category:List of Software Companies in Mumbai to Category:Software Companies in Mumbai. utcursch | talk 08:42, 5 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete WP is not a yellow pages... Mr. R00t ^{Leave me a Message} 04:27, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
keep, I think we can improve the article, like removing non-notable software companies names, only keeping notable companies name.KuwarOnline (talk) 05:01, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment- There are other similar pages like List of Software Companies in Delhi, List of software and BPO companies in NOIDA.--^Nilotpal42 07:18, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Wikipedia is not a directory. Joe Chill (talk) 01:34, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: per WP:NOTDIR. The vast majority of this giant list is nothing but red links and "footnotes" that point directly to unnotable company website.--70.80.234.196 (talk) 13:31, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
