[edit] Pletal

Delete. Article for some sort of pharmaceutical that reads like ad copy. pletal gets 447 unique Google hits, not all relevant. If Wikipedia needs an article for this drug, this isn't it. AиDя01DTALKEMAIL 22:29, July 9, 2005 (UTC)

• Comment: Pletal is a brand name for Cilostazol, which gets another 705 google hits using your criteria. I think the product itself should be in Wikipedia. I do have serious concerns about the copyright status of the text in the current article, but I can not find anything on the Internet to prove it is copyright text. It does look like a cut/paste job though. I may vote later on this VfD. For now, I'll continue looking regarding the copyright status and vote abstain. --Durin 22:35, 9 July 2005 (UTC)

• Comment on copyvio possibility; I don't think it is. SOME of the text appears to be a direct cut/paste from this FDA resource [1], which means the text is in the public domain. --Durin 22:46, 9 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep; With the above in mind, and agreeing with TheCoffee below (except on copyvio status), I change my vote from abstain to keep. --Durin 22:46, 9 July 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. It's notable and linked to from List of drugs: Pj-Pra. I think this could be a decent article fixed up and expanded. (though, as it stands, it looks like a copyvio). TheCoffee 22:37, 9 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and cleanup. Some notability. JamesBurns 07:58, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Very POV I must say but we can fix this. As is it looks like an ad. Redwolf24 07:10, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
