Prodded by me almost a year ago was deprodded and almost a year later there still aren't any multiple independent reliable sources giving any indication of notability. Whispering 18:22, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

  • Weak delete Their product, but not the company, has been reviewed by the BBC and PCMagazine.--Sethacus 21:23, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
  • keep, Lots of people know products and not the companies, and to me this makes the parent company article worthy if the product is notable. Giving some slack because it is AV and the importance of AV both "today" and historically in this era. Pharmboy 00:03, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, Rename, and slight rewrite There isn't an exisiting article for their product, Antivir. Since Antivir doesn't exist yet (it's a redirect to Avira), and since this article is mostly about Antivir (and not Avira) anyway, I suggest switching the redirect for the article title (and vice versa), and a rewrite of the lead.

  • Weak keep provided revisions are made to satisfy WP:CORP guidelines. --Aarktica 14:46, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep per Aarktica. Kayaker 23:33, 1 August 2007 (UTC).
  • Delete still no independent sources to establish notability. Eluchil404 05:28, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
How many sources would be necessary to meet your personal opinion of "coverage in multiple sources"? spazure (contribs) 06:26, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
I think ~30 million users of Avira's products guarantee the notability?--Petrim 14:17, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
