Non notable software company, Fails WP:CORP - the only coverage is not significant, most of it reproductions of press releases. Also adding XML Studio it's main product, article is promotional and also lack of coverage (even less than the links about may indicate as there looks like there are two products called XML Studio) so fails WP:GNG Codf1977 (talk) 21:18, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nomination. Also note strongly promotional tone: Liquid XML Data Binding has grown in popularity due to its support from all the major languages and its ability to deal with complex schemas.... The free edition is extremely popular in schools and universities, its split code/diagram views speed the learning of the complex XSD standard.... - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 03:13, 22 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Nominator needs to read the guideline that an article isn't spam merely because its subject is a commercial body. Copyediting would be useful and if the time of copyeditors wasn't continually wasted in farcical AfDs, it might even get done. Andy Dingley (talk) 09:43, 22 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry but XML Studio reads like a sales brochure, product lacks any form of significant coverage and as a result fails WP:GNG, as for the company again no significant coverage, falis WP:GNG - I am unable to see what any amount of Copyediting could help with the notability of both the company and it's software.

Delete. Very little independent coverage so fails WP:CORP and WP:GNG as far as I can tell. Alzarian16 (talk) 10:26, 30 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
