Wikipedia is not meant to be used as spam. If a software package is not noteworthy and does not justify a dedicated wiki article then wikipedia should not be used to provide free advertising space to unknown and irrelevant products. -- Mecanismo | Talk 17:35, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. However, any decent or promising software deserves a mention. The list should be as comprehensive as possible. I have looked at a few of the items your editing removed, and they obviously include noteworthy if not more than noteworthy software. Even if someone added their software to the article for advertising purposes, you should remove only the advertising bit, and avoid "punishing" them by removing the item completely. Please consider re-adding the relevant software mentions. 80.232.11.13 (talk) 17:43, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That a software package does not have a Wikipedia article is most definitely not a good enough reason for removing it from the list. Instead, how about creating an article? For instance, Agros2D is a very promising software, and your edit removed it from the list. 80.232.11.13 (talk) 17:47, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
