[edit] Veripic

Blatant advertisement. I caught this article months ago on RC Patrol and edited, wikified and tagged it as needing cleanup and references. Since then nothing has been done except to make it more blatantly into an advert. Hasty Delete Zunaid 11:20, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

• Comment: If anyone else feels there is merit in it, please also consider adding Dataworks Plus to this nomination. Although it is not as blatant as the above, it still seems suspiciously like self-promotion, not to mention that it includes cross-promotion of Veripic as well. It has been tagged for cleanup since December 2005, with nothing being done since then. Zunaid 11:55, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
• Comment 2: While we're at it, Digital Photo Management seems to be an article almost exclusively about SQL database storage of digital photos (needless to say, also mentioning Veripic along the way), whereas a Google search of the term brings up more generic things like photo album software. It is more subtle than the above two, but still seems like self-promotion of a field (and it's associated software) in order to CREATE awareness rather than report neutrally and encyclopedically on already newsqorthy facts.

• Delete as an ad. Devotchka 18:20, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete one and two, but Merge DPM into Digital Asset Management and get rid of its promotional stuff about companies. --Chaser (T) 23:52, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
