Tagging

I'm flagging this article NPOV and advert for, among others, the following:

• The distribution is particularly notable
• However, despite its age, the most recent release is very suitable for a basic firewall system, and remains customizable by its nature
• extensive usage of second person and lack of encyclopedic distance both to the subject and the reader in general
• overzealous list of features/advantages

Apart from that, general improvements of language appear necessary as well. 68.184.213.180 (talk) 21:53, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Removed PROD

I removed the proposed deletion notification because this article is in the process of being rewritten based upon the german original article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.101.238.172 (talk) 13:04, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

That is fine, but it still doesn't have any references that show that the subject is notable. I'll wait until you are done and then we can re-assess whether it should be sent to WP:AFD. Is a week enough time to finish your work on it? - Ahunt (talk) 14:05, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

Thank you. I thought, I could do it on short notice but something came in between. I'll need more than a week. --Ajv39 (talk) 14:41, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

No problem, I'll check back at the end of the month then. - Ahunt (talk) 15:00, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

Book

Ahunt wrote (see History): usually called "further reading" on Wikipedia, fixed. It is not clear that this book even mentions this subject however, needs a review

• Thanks for fixing.
• A preview of the book including a complete contents listing is here: Preview PC-Netzwerke. The subject is in the book from the first edition on. - Ajv39 (talk) 15:11, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Okay I see that. I'd like to suggest then that given that we know what it says that the book should be used as a ref, rather than "further reading" as it strengthens the argument that the topic is notable. - Ahunt (talk) 15:15, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

[x] done - Ajv39 (talk) 20:09, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Super. I think we have the bare minimum to argue WP:N now. I'll see what else I can find. - Ahunt (talk) 13:20, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

I added a couple of refs, more for would helpful, though. - Ahunt (talk) 15:31, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks a lot! I added some references too from the German magazine c't (Editor Heinz Heise). There should certainly exist more useful refs (Google has 617000 hits on "fli4l"). - Ajv39 (talk) 21:10, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

I found lots of hits as well and it is a unique name, but, of course most turn out to be blogs, spam, forums and other not-very-useful results. It is always a matter of finding the wheat in the chaff. - Ahunt (talk) 22:02, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
