Non-notable software package. Prod removed by author with claims of notability made on the talk page. Those claims have proven to be incorrect. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 16:46, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete unless more independent coverage is provided. Right now there is only one verifiable reference in the article (article "Analyzing (social media) networks with NodeXL" in "Proceedings of the fourth international conference on Communities and technologies"), but as at least one of the authors of the article seems to be affiliated with software, it is IMHO a very weak claim for notability.

I have added a second reference in the article to a review of the book that was written by someone who is not affiliated with the software and added some more press-coverage information to the article discussion page. Vlad43210 16:50, 24 November 2010
Thanks; BTW, you might want to incorporate some of the links into the article; also asking for a help from a rescue squad might be a good idea. Ipsign (talk) 17:05, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Abstain based on added links (both article and talk page); while they might not comply with WP:RS (at least one of them IMHO looks as a paid ad-like content), now I'm not so sure if the article should be deleted. Ipsign (talk) 17:02, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The only link that has been added is one at the SapDesign user forum, which I am somewhat skeptical about. That review looks more like a paid advertisement for the product than an indepdentent review. And a user review at a user forum does not really count in the reliable sources category.

Have you seen links added to the talk page? I agree some of them are questionable, but not sure if all of them are. Ipsign (talk) 17:26, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 01:33, 26 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Added more content (including references to papers and conference presence, plus a more detailed description of the features, plus screenshot) to the page. Please take a look and see if the article is more appropriate for Wikipedia now. I also added a Rescue Squad template link. Vlad43210 (talk) 19:46, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
