[edit] Trust-forum
This appears to be a "vanity" article about a new software project which is not (yet) notable. The user who wrote the Wikipedia article is the same person who is the author of the project. The project appears to be a FUSSP -- an unproven attempt to "solve the spam problem". In any event, vanity articles and original research are both criteria for deletion under Wikipedia deletion policy. FOo 16:58, 15 July 2005 (UTC)
Well, if it is only the reference to the antispam solution that is the reason to delete this article, we can just delete this aspect and focus on other aspects of this software, that can be interesting too ?--Spoirier 19:44, 15 July 2005 (UTC)
- The reasons to delete it isn't that it's an FUSSP; it's that it's vanity (you wrote the article about your own program) and that it's not a notable project (yet). Once you solve the spam problem for thousands of people, one of them will write a Wikipedia article about your program. --FOo 03:32, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

- All right, anyway I don't worry: important corrections are being made these days, as I'm starting to use the system for myself, and I expect that thousands users will finally come in the next few weeks. So even if it is deleted now it is likely to come back a bit later.--Spoirier 10:34, 17 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. I'm sorry, Spoirier, but you can't write the article about your own software. Concentrate on making your software good enough to attract attention, and somebody else will write an article on it. Otherwise this counts as a "vanity article" and "original research."

- Delete, not yet notable (see SourceForge page -- still in beta, 6 downloads in last week. Keep working on it, sounds interesting! Dcarrano 00:33, July 16, 2005 (UTC)
