The result was keep. Obvious notability, however, it does read like an advertisement. The article needs cleaned up (granted by the template on the page) (non-admin closure) Dusti^*poke* 05:44, 2 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Notability, looks like spam. Darxus (talk) 00:07, 19 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Obvious notability, including numerous 3rd party refs already in the article. Can't imagine why this is AfD, looks perfectly good. Maury Markowitz (talk) 02:42, 19 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Not sure if it should stay or go, but it should be noted that - if kept - the article needs to be cleaned up. As well, there are several Wikipedia accounts directly linked to the company that occasionally edit it in a promotional manner. --Ckatz^chat _spy 09:56, 19 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Nice article, content is relevant, perhaps a little advertising, but this can indeed be changed. --Pflaumenbaum (talk) 10:58, 20 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Note that the above account's only content edit (prior to today's vote) was an edit to an article about a project sponsored by the manufacturer of Silverfast. --Ckatz^chat _spy 22:33, 20 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
