I prodded it with the following rationale: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (software) requirement. " It was deprodded by User:Fmcoder (creator, WP:SPA) with no rationale. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:54, 10 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reasons to keep: RadioBOSS is widely known in the industry. As Wikipedia lists software of such kind, it should be included there as well for the sake of completeness. Why lack a prominent software? The leading radio streaming and directory services include guides about it e.g.: - TuneIn: https://cms.tunein.com/broadcasters/api/instructions/#radioboss - Live365: https://support.live365.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000036948-Using-RadioBoss-with-Live365 - Radio.co: https://radio.co/blog/radioboss-setup-online-radio It is listed as popular software product in the niche in some works, for instance: https://arxiv.org/abs/1604.00233 The "online radio training school" (not affiliated with software authors) has extensive set of materials about RadioBOSS: https://onlineradiotraining.com/ Fmcoder (talk) 17:05, 11 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The Wikipedia notability test is measured by the presence or absence of reliable source coverage about the topic in media, not by primary sources and proprietary training manuals. Bearcat (talk) 04:30, 17 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
