Are software programs potential candidates for speedy deletion under CSD A7? The criterion states that potential candidates are a "real person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content", which doesn't explicitly include software programs.
Depends if you're Wikilawyering or not. A blatantly non-notable SourceForge project may well be speedied under A7 (or G11) rather than waste everybody's time with a longer process.
What makes a software program "blatantly non-notable"? The one I have in mind is not a SourceForge project. To give an example, what about [[RoboGEO]]?
What must an article about a software program do to "assert the importance or significance of its subject"?
See [[WP:SOFTWARE]]
Are you saying you agree with that proposed guideline? It doesn't seem like many software programs fall under it. If I pick a random software program from download.com, should it probably be in, or probably be out?
