[edit] Cbreak

Freeware with no claim to notability Rklawton 04:04, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. Its claim to notability is that it is a "free commercial remover for AVI files", which to me seems both notable and useful. TruthbringerToronto 04:15, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Weak delete. Not much claim of notability. --Danielrocks123 04:41, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Google test[1] brings up some notability. Article can be revamped, though. Yanksox ^(talk) 04:46, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Nah, "cbreak" is some sort a programming term in addition to this thing. I searched for (cbreak avi) and found 152 unique hits including something about "cbreak dance music". Go firgure. - CrazyRussian talk/email 05:32, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• keep + wikify Joeyramoney 04:57, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep per above, but in definite need of a cleanup. --Arnzy ^{(whats up?)} 04:59, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Strong delete absolutely no assertion of compliance with WP:SOFTWARE or evidence of widespread use. - CrazyRussian talk/email 05:30, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I refined the google search and Crz, is right. It was already apparent that the article was a mess, but after reviewing WP:SOFTWARE, I see no reason to keep. Notability is next to non-existant. Yanksox ^(talk) 05:44, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep. Articles on minor free software projects seem innocuous, and I would hold them to a lower standard than commercial software that is likely to be unavailable if not sold actively. LotLE×talk 06:48, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, no claim to notability. -- Kjkolb 09:37, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Weak delete per nom. --Xyrael ^T 12:04, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete fails WP:SOFTWARE per CrazyRussian Kevin 13:16, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, agree with CrazyRussian. It fails WP:SOFTWARE, it is not notable enough for Wikipedia... WP:NOT a web directory of site/software. This is GNU/GPL Free software (and good luck with it), and is better off being listed on freshmeat.net where it belongs. - Motor (talk) 13:54, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, no assertion of notability even on the software's homepage. Someone could easily code another commercial remover for DVR recordings; that's rather easy to do with the right programming knowledge. There could be any number of such programs now. Assertion of notability would be something like "this is the world's first such program" and/or "it was reviewed extensively by newspapers X and Y" - and sadly the article is lacking this critical assertion.

• Delete per CrazyRussian. —Khoikhoi 03:54, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete No assertion of notability per WP:SOFTWARE. Eluchil404 01:06, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
