[edit] Yahoo! Mail Beta

Transient subject matter. Information about an unspecific "beta" version of future software is not worthy of its own article. Warrens 04:15, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

• Keep - as much as it's free advertising for Yahoo!, I have to conclude that this is noteworthy. - Richardcavell 04:21, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: Will the article continue to be noteworthy after the "beta" is no longer beta? That's my point -- we already have an article on Yahoo! Mail, we don't need two. Warrens 05:58, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - beta software is not notable. if it becames popular software then maybe --MarsRover 04:29, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

• Merge with Yahoo! Mail. It is notable within that context but when it becomes the default option, it will be known as Yahoo! Mail. Capitalistroadster 06:30, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
• Merge with Yahoo! Mail per Capitalistroadster. Paddles 10:34, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
• Merge It would seem a merge for inclusion into Yahoo! Mail would be a better alternative than deletion. The Beta's history might be notable for inclusion into that article. However, it does not seem notable on its face. Navou ^talk 11:19, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
• Merge with Yahoo! Mail, as it is just an upcoming revision for the same. --soUmyaSch 12:35, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
