- There's zillions of text editors for Windows. Delete unless someone explains why this one is notable. -- Cyrius|✎ 16:19, May 20, 2004 (UTC)
- Should EditPad also go? The two articles were of approximately the same size and content when created. Both are essentially advertisements, though. Fredrik 16:27, 20 May 2004 (UTC)
- Probably. Although now that I look at it, EditPlus is linked off Wikipedia:List of encyclopedia topics. Weird. -- Cyrius|✎ 23:19, May 20, 2004 (UTC)
- Fredrik, if you'd like, please list EditPad separately -- it's a bit messy if we try to discuss two unrelated articles at once. Wile E. Heresiarch 17:26, 24 May 2004 (UTC)

- I'm kinda on the fence about this one. Wikipedia is not paper, but it's not a junk heap either. I expanded it a bit, but it sounds identical to some other source code editors, such as Visual SlickEdit. —Frecklefoot 22:45, May 20, 2004 (UTC)
- I used to use this program ages ago. I think it's notable enough to be mentioned in wiki but it needs some NPOVing, the stub reads like an advertisement. --Starx 05:10, 21 May 2004 (UTC)
- I use this editor--it's a classic--especially unique for its abilities for allowing you to edit files directly on the server bypassing an FTP program.
- Delete: not notable. There are bazillions of text editors. Nothing special about this one. Wile E. Heresiarch 17:26, 24 May 2004 (UTC)
- Keep, it's a popular text editor Ivan 17:21, May 25, 2004 (UTC)
