Unsourced crystal balling that reads like a piece of promotion. Slatersteven (talk) 17:42, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Could you help me improve the page? I'm going to provide sources but can you change the description language to not something promotional.TurboProgramming (talk) 17:53, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I would rather wait until after the AFD, as I said it is still crystalballing, and needs some pretty strong coverage to overcome that. Just not finding any real coverage beyond what look like product announcements.Slatersteven (talk) 17:57, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Instead of deleting the page, can you or someone help change the text to something not promotional so we could have more and better pages on Wikipedia? This kind of software should be on Wikipedia. Yes, I may have wrote it crystalballing as I'm so new here, somebody can change and help me, right? Maybe you?TurboProgramming (talk) 18:00, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Could you check the page again? We've reformatted the text, replaced wrong information and removed the promotional language. TurboProgramming (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 09:35, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Did you read the policies I linked to on your talk page?Slatersteven (talk) 09:56, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but why are you still calling Makeroid and the Makeroid Wiki page a crystall ball? It really exists and over 15.000+ users. It's just down right now and will be back up Q2? Those information are real and I'm still editing the page. Please wait and don't delete the page. After all my edits, I'll be back here again. I've recently added References, that was another issue on the page.TurboProgramming (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 10:36, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"Currently, Makeroid has been taken down by the developers and under development for their production release." it has not been released and is still under development (ad had to be withdrawn due to multiple bugs). Your references do not establish notability, we need third party RS for that. Also we have this [1], what does it say?Slatersteven (talk) 10:46, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Clearly this article (and the product) is still in development. It may be appropriate to move this to WP:DRAFTS space and bring it back in through WP:AFC once things are more developed. Let me know and I can help to make this happen. ~Kvng (talk) 17:21, 5 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, please transform this Wikipedia page to a draft, after the official launch, we'll make it official and available to everybody, so noone would call the page cyrstall balling.TurboProgramming (talk)

OK, but we can't do that unless/until other AfD participants agree to it. It still may be deleted. In the meantime you may want to create a copy of this for safekeeping in your sandbox. ~Kvng (talk) 01:38, 6 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Is it me or is this 100% sourced to primary sources?Slatersteven (talk) 16:28, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Edited sources.TurboProgramming (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 17:08, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And this made a difference how, they all still look primary to me.Slatersteven (talk) 17:40, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
