[edit] ChessRally

Currently this is simply a vanity page, although if it is notable enough, it might be recoverable. Icelight 6 July 2005 20:16 (UTC)

  • Delete not notable. Andreas Kaufmann 6 July 2005 22:05 (UTC)
  • Delete, ad for non-notable product. Dcarrano 16:35, July 13, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, as an avid chess player I've not heard of it. The article also reads like a advertisement, so if there is a decision to keep it, it must be rewritten. Barneygumble 20:49, 13 July 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, very notable product, even for casual chess players. Clean it up and make it more objective if you feel it is vanity. royblumy 21:43, July 13, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, there are plenty of chess playing programs and this one isn't notable. Radiant_>|< 12:14, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, This has been heavily revised (to be non advertisement-ish, which was NOT the intent) since all previous votes, and it IS actually a notable software entry. It's newness to the industry belies its growing popularity, hence some have not yet heard of it... clearly some have :-) If you all feel it needs further revision, no problem, just post in discussion, and I'll be happy to oblige (P.S. If I'm not allowed to vote on my own article, then I humbly apologize in advance!) Rcryniak 22:47, July 15, 2005 (UTC)
    • You certainly allowed to vote, but as an article author would be nice if you provide some proof that the software is notable (see request for references on Talk page). Please also indicate if you ask people on external discussion board to come here and vote. I see votes of people who never was on Wikipedia before start appearing.

  • Keep, Looking at the revisions, the latest seems good, worthy of keeping I think. The product is getting fairly well known, I've used it myself and I'm friends with several International FIDE tournament players and I know a couple of them use it. Dutch1124 0:30, July 16, 2005 (UTC)
