Lack of clear notability, sourcing. Does not appear to be particularly notable. Can be redirected, if there is consensus for that, but I have no idea where within the farm of various windows pages. No independent notability. rootology (C)(T) 13:40, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Keep - It was an independent Microsoft entity that was part of its "Windows Live" series of online services started in 2007. Unfortunately Microsoft discontinued it in 2008. It's purpose had been stated in the article. I have updated the article with sources that are still available. Each independent Windows Live service officially provided by Microsoft are deemed notable on Wikipedia, even if the service no longer exists (that is not a criteria for deletion). The article does not fail WP:NOTE in this case and should be kept. --Pikablu0530 (talk) 15:03, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Secondly, there is no rule that states the author's opinion should be ignored in this matter. I was invited by the nominee to participate in this dicussion and consider myself to be making valid statements. --Pikablu0530 (talk) 14:41, 5 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
