  • Contested speedy delete Anthony Appleyard 15:30, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Varkon has been deleted twice:
  • Delete based on my speedy nom and comments on WP:COIN. Notability cannot be asserted in accordance with WP:N. The article is based entirely on primary sources and was solicitated by the software developers per my evidence at WP:COIN. Add to this that it had already been deleted once and there is a clear cut candidate for deletion. EconomicsGuy 15:56, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as spam. No independent sources to establish notability. Cap'n Walker 15:59, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep as this searching for this name on google returns 22,000 hits. Law & Disorder 17:55, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. I'm waiting for independent third-party sources describing actual usage of Varkon and indicating it is valuable. The recreation of a deleted article without going through DRV, and the creator's apparent COI, are troubling issues. The intemperate remarks of User:VeganEater, the person who re-created the article today, don't suggest good faith or respect for our policies. EdJohnston 21:29, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete posthaste. Zero sources. shoy 16:02, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
