Unreferenced article about a web browser apparently created by the author of the software. There is no indication that the product is notable. The article was previously twice deleted as spam; the author contested the PROD on this incarnation. RichardOSmith (talk) 15:48, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete This should be speedied. "Pika Browser" appears to be a Hello World program for the Pika application development framework [1] (Look at the matching program icons). Pika is a platform for making apps with little effort. They offer a web browser as a pre-built component. I don't know if Pika wrote this, or if they're simply embedding IE.
  • Possibly this should be an article on the Pika platform rather than this web browser. If that could demonstrate WP:GNG it might even be a valid article.
  • If this article topic is merely someone's first learning exercise in Pika, then it's hard to see an article that could be any further from notability as a software product. Let alone the lack of article in this article. (If the article could be fixed, then it deserves time to do so, but this shows no indication it's even possible).
