aMSN has been downloaded over 31 million times - http://sourceforge.net/top/topalltime.php?type=downloads May I propose we delete the articles for Notepad++, TortoiseSVN and Miranda IM while we're at it? mmGTi (talk) 22:12, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

They proposed them, Notepad++ two times. --Cyclopia ^talk 11:49, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

it was a joke because administrators have removed aMSN, but now it is restored ! — Neustradamus (✉) 12:26, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It is not a joke. It has been restored but it can be nominated again, and it probably will be if no sources come up. --Cyclopia ^talk 13:14, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

http://sourceforge.net/top/topalltime.php?type=downloads look the position and the number of download — Neustradamus (✉) 14:01, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I fully agree with you, but that's not how it works here. Or, better: I personally agree that if something has been used by millions of people it should be declared notable, and I see no problem with the article (I am very happy it is back). But a lot of people however disagree, and not necessarily with bad reasons. See WP:V, WP:N, WP:RS as primers. --Cyclopia ^talk 14:42, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I found some awesome new links! three very well known magazine ("Linux magazine", "PC magazine" and "The official Windows Magazine") that wrote an issue in which they had an article on aMSN! I will add those to the page! I hope this shows enough notability and that those people who disagree with you will find it notable now with these new links. And thanks for defending us and helping restore the page! :)
