The article Downtango has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- I don't see how this software piece is notable (WP:N).
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Notability
editWP:N has some helpful sections, in particular, check Wikipedia:Notability (software). Note that your argument is based on a Wikipedia logical fallacy :) i.e. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS; in other words, you may be right that GetRight should not have an article, neither. Both of those articles look poorly referenced to me. If you disagree with me, feel free to remove the prod notice, but if other references are not added, I think we will need to escalate this to a wider community discussion at WP:AFD (and the community may decide I am in the wrong, of course - time will tell). Let me know if you have any other questions. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 16:52, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Webctor
edit
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Webctor requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Noiratsi (talk) 11:06, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of BartVPN
edit The article BartVPN has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- This is an ad. The article does not explain why the software is notable. If the article hadn't been around since 2012, I would suggest speedy under G11 or A7.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.
