*'''Keep''' Seems like its quite notable to Russian speaking people. As for your comment, "This is the type of trivial mention that WP:N hates.", I'd like to point out that the guideline can't actually hate anything, only the people who created it can, and they of course hate anything that requires them to think for themselves, preferring to destroy every single article that doesn't have a news source they have heard of giving coverage to something. Of course, there are many notable things out there which aren't covered at all, such as some bestselling novels. So you have to think for yourself, ignore the suggested guidelines, they just suggestions not policy, and use common sense. How many millions of people use this software? That makes it notable.

*'''Strong delete'''. ONCE AGAIN PEOPLE, internet forums are not indicators of notability (in the encyclopedic sense) nor are they reliable as a source for any encyclopedia, including this one. (!!!) Please please please get this through your heads. :( [[User:JBsupreme|JBsupreme]] ([[User talk:JBsupreme|talk]]) 05:48, 29 September 2009 (UTC) |

Quiet Internet Pager

Non-notable. After contested prod, three sources were added:
- Softpedia - user generated site that has accepted uploaded press releases as reviews
- ICQhelp - two sentences about QIP that says exist. This is the type of trivial mention that WP:N hates.
- Computer Forensics - the trivialest of trivial mentions. QIP appears in a list with several other clients, in an article that mentions dozens of clients.
This software is not notable, per WP:N. Period. Miami33139 (talk) 22:21, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
- Delete: I cna't find significant coverage] for this software. Joe Chill (talk) 23:33, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
- Keep: A simple Google search pulls up www.qip.ru with their forums located at http://forum.qip.ru/
They have 3rd-party add-on capabilities, skinning, PDA versions, Smartphones, Windows platform and, a skin designing program. I have to say that this is pretty deep seated and a well set up program (after testing it) and is notable. Perhaps not notable to the American public but is notable to the Russian public (after all, it is hosted on a Russian site.) I say keep after some edits pointing to the information for the site. However I think it should be moved and translated to the Russian side of Wikipedia --Apb91781 (talk) 06:59, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
