Speedy deletion nomination of Merlin (software)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Merlin (software), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Light2021 (talk) 05:56, 11 July 2017 (UTC)

Nomination of Merlin (software) for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Merlin (software) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Merlin (software) (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Light2021 (talk) 14:20, 11 July 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for informing me Light2021. I re-edit it and took the OmniPlan page (which is a similar product) as reference. I also made sure it is kept neutral, but of course as one needs some references beside the page of the developer, I left the MacWorld review for historical reasons. Would the article be more neutral if the MacWorld or Captera mentions are removed? Shall one insert some critics people have to its function (one could easily find some in the ongoing product review rating). EStam (talk) 11:02, 13 July 2017 (UTC)ESta
