[edit] Okopipi (software tool)
I nominated this article for deletion, I do not feel that this article improves the encyclopaedia. The article I nominated does not hold any references, or citations as to its importance. Apologies if I upset anybody. Cєlαя∂σяєTalk 23:32, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

- This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 12:15, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per citations to establish notability, as follows: CNet article VNUNet, Extensive writeup at techtarget.com. I am adding some or all of these to the article, though I don't think I'll be destubbing it (I have other things I'd like to get done today). If I may offer helpful advice, in the future it may be helpful to run a Google check first and see if you can improve an article before nominating for deletion; this saves time and effort compared to the cross-site editing that has to be done to complete an AfD nomination.

- Only a spammer or those in league with spammers
would want this article deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.151.197.236 (talk • contribs)
- Keep, per additions by Captainktainer. There would appear to be many other articles and references available that would satisfy WP:SOFTWARE - the ones he has listed are just the cream of the crop. Kuru talk 03:58, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep - this shouldn't be considered a promotional page since it is just an open-source project. Also it is directly relevant to the article. If the project fails, then this article can be deleted. Eliot1785 talk 14:10, 19 July 2006 (EST)
By the way, I'm not a spammer nor in league with spammers... I just feel that this is an article for something that doesn't exist. Sure, we have articles that express ideas - I just feel this doesn't qualify. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea but there's not actually anything other than an idea going on.

- Keep - and let us hope the bird flies. - Kittybrewster 16:17, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep - I learned about Okopipi and the previous project Blue Frog from Wikipedia. It made me interested in the problems of fighting spam emails. Very exciting information, definetely keep! --Xiulinhang 17:09, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
