Software doesn't seem to meet WP:NPRODUCT - the sole independent sources that are focussed on the product are 1) an announcement on Macworld about the release of an updated version and 2) a paragraph in an Aristek Systems comparison of 9 software programs. This doesn't seem sufficient to pass as significant in-depth coverage? MrsSnoozyTurtle 09:11, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Notability isn't based on the sources present in an article, but the sources available in the world. A quick WP:BEFORE search shows multiple review articles ([1], [2], [3], and [4]) and books ([5], [6] ,[7], and [8]). These are sufficient sources with which to write an article describing modo and to satisfy WP:GNG. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 08:19, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
True. Agree with Keep, I think there are sufficient sources. Jawad Haqbeen (talk) 02:02, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I and others in the Article Rescue Squadron participated in the first AFD of this article ten years ago, and found significant coverage in reliable sources. I find many of the links no longer work, but notability is not temporary, and sources don't have to be accessible online to count. The total coverage found was enough to convince everyone back then. The Animation Magazine review still works. [9] Mark viking found a review in PC World, so that's another reliable source. Dream Focus 08:50, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Given there were three 'keep' !votes, no delete opinions beyond the nom, and general agreement that the nom failed BEFORE, I don't see the point in relisting. — Charles Stewart (talk) 13:49, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: adequate sources appear to exist; nom failed to do BEFORE check. — Charles Stewart (talk) 13:49, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
