Reason
Contested proposed deletion; Yet another minor "project management" website or software. The article's only claim to historical or technical importance of the sort that would make this software package a suitable subject for an encyclopedia article is a claim to have been named "The 7 Coolest Startups You Haven’t Heard of Yet" which offers no notability in the wider world. All other offered references are internal to the business. The article itself is simply a features list, which essentially makes Wikipedia a free web host for advertising: this is essentially a sales brochure. Google News would appear to yield nothing but press releases and advertising.— Preceding unsigned comment added by LoudHowie (talk • contribs) 7 February 2012

- Keep: this one is notable indeed. The article features references to LifeHacker and Wired (though this one isn't suitable for WP:N purposes). Apart from those I found:

- I think it's enough for both WP:GNG and WP:NSOFT. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 22:54, 8 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: you won't read about Trello in The Economist; what sort of notability are we after? It's a software project that TechCrunch has written about. That should be enough. Disclosure: I do not use Trello, and don't even like it; I simply am highly knowledgeable about web-based project management software. As a software developer and the main contributor to the Trello article, I feel pained when deletionists like the nominator contribute nothing to Wikipedia and instead nominate software projects for deletion.

- Keep: seems significant enough. Shlomif (talk) 08:31, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: I am a competitor (!). I would egoistically have any reasons to vote for deletion. However, it would be _incredible_ if Trello disappeared from Wikipedia. I am writing this without ever talking to the Trello people, and not expecting absolutely anything back. I consider myself an expert in the field, and trello is definitely notable.Tony Mobily (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 06:46, 14 February 2012 (UTC).[reply]
