Keep Hmm weird I thought April fools already passed long time ago, okay on serious note your reasoning is kind-of-biased, then how about other editors opinion? You just using opinion as basing for this nom for deletion, more rather you didn't point out why it's seems like a promotional page, do not use word "seems" when you nominating for deletion, it shows you are unsure about this nomination, means you have weak basis for this nomination, also the explanation inside the article is good enough for me, from notability it has considerable amount or result on internet, I seriously don't know what other reason for this deletion other than your baseless opinion.--AldNon^Ucallin?☎ 01:00, 4 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or Merge and Redirect I am a contributor to the article, and it isn't promotional in the slightest. We can either expand upon it (which would not be very hard) or create a new section for it at Tor (anonymity network). What really needs to be done is to delete two articles that currently redirect to Tor Browser Bundle, which are PortableTor and Portable Tor. 92.78.234.161 (talk) 16:29, 4 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
strong delete or redirect to Tor (anonymity network). Two reasons that seem to make this a pretty cut and dry decision:
1. When you go to download Tor from the official site, what you download by default IS Tor Browser Bundle.
2. The ENTIRE article duplicates content available at Tor (anonymity network) (so nothing to merge). Not only does the Tor article have a near copy of the Bundle article's lead, but outside of the lead the bundle article doesn't even mention the bundle, instead talking about Tor generally. --— Rhododendrites ^talk | 20:03, 4 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Bear in mind that there is still a good amount of information that can be added about Tor Browser. The Tor article is going to become quite long, and I think it's going to need to be split into its own article eventually. (I think the same thing about the Tor Project needing its own article eventually.) Why not work on it now as a separate article and save the trouble or merging and then splitting it again? If we redirect to Tor, would you support deleting the Portable Tor and PortableTor articles? 94.222.75.188 (talk) 06:54, 5 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - software article of unclear notability lacking significant coverage in reliable sources. A search turns up no RS coverage apart from this brief PC World review [1]. The rest of the search results are incidental mentions in articles that are about Tor, download sites, and other non-RS links; these don't establish notability for this software.Dialectric (talk) 11:10, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
