No demonstration of notability per the general notability guideline. Also Wikipedia is not a manual and Wikipedia is not a soapbox or means of promotion. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 08:02, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - WP:ADVERT - Just another random, non-notable piece of software. -- WikHead (talk) 08:28, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- WP:ADVERT can be resolved with a broom, not deletion. And when there's a fair share of sources for xcloud on the net (though written in mandarin), what do you mean by random and non notable? Bonkers The Clown (talk) 08:30, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - According to Wikipedia:Notability_(organizations_and_companies)#Products_and_services "If a company is notable, information on its products and services should generally be included in the article on the company itself, unless the company article is so large that this would make the article unwieldy." The company is not even notable enough to have it's own page... so unless the product is absolutely ground breaking then it should not have its own page. If Wikipedia MUST have this product listed, then concerned parties need to create a page for the company who makes it, establish notability for that company, and list this info in that page.ReformedArsenal (talk) 19:15, 23 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
