I think that we shouldn't have this on Wikipedia. I think it's unencyclopedic and just doesn't belong here. While it is useful, this belongs on a specific website devoted to IMs, not Wikipedia   •The RSJ•   Talk | Sign Here 23:53, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep We have many other "comparison" articles, and I don't think this one is any worse than those I've seen in the past. There's little if any OR (contrary to the article's tagging), all of the info is verifiable, and the page contains useful encyclopedic content. -- Kicking222 00:45, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep-Informative, useful, and in line with other comparison articles. I fail to see exactly what is unencyclopedic about it. —Dylan Lake 01:21, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Kicking222 - all the contents are verifiable. Quack 688 01:23, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I've found several of these software comparison articles useful, factual and neutral - they use easily verifiable facts and specifications, without drawing a conclusion or "rating" the subjects, so no OR involved. --Canley 03:05, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • KEEP! Hi, I just found this amazing article and saw that it was foolishly nominated for delete by some random runescape player as noted on the history thingy. I 100000% agree with everything the above smart people have stated. There is no reason to delete this. Policies need to be change to keep up w/ the times. Plus, I hear there is a IAR policy here at wikipedia. As a common user of wikipedia, I speak for the average person-- keep it or we leave!

Comparison articles are the BEST! I think whoever disagrees doesn't belong here at Wikipedia, "the free source for information and knowledge." -signed as "if it's good, keep it" —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 162.84.133.100 (talk) 03:44, 12 January 2007 (UTC).[reply]
