I found no significant coverage for this file renaming software. Fails WP:N. SL93 (talk) 02:21, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: KDE is a part of KDE Software Compilation. If KRename is not notable then many of the softwares on this template is not notable. Also, KRename comes with the OS if the desktop environment is KDE. Bekiroflaz (talk) 09:06, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Did You actually try? A brief search (I wasted more time formatting references, actually), gave me several sources covering this software.^[1]^[2]^[3] There were another book by the same author and some more web references I just don't want to waste my time on. Added really massive coverage in blogs and that it's a part of KDE SC, I think the notability can be assumed undisputable. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 16:59, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Of course I tried which is what I said. Don't assume bad faith and call me a liar. Those are trivial mentions. LXer isn't even a reliable source because anyone can submit articles. Blogs are not reliable sources and being a part of KDE does not show notability per the notability guideline. SL93 (talk) 17:03, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  - Neither did I assume bad faith, nor called You a liar, I just stated You failed to do You homework. At the same time, Your reply reveals that I was wrong about which homework You didn't do. The "trivial mention" is "You shouldn't rename them by hand, KRename can help You". The sources I've linked instead describe KRename. Though the book indeed lacks detail, the other references are devoted to tool description, and KRename is one of their focuses. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 17:11, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    - Like I said, LXer isn't even a reliable source. The other source mainly focuses on Gwenview. SL93 (talk) 17:14, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
      - Sorry, removing comment was not intentional. The source by Novell indeed focuses on Gwenview, but this doesn't dismiss the fact that the whole section of article (with screenshots!!!) is devoted solely to KRename. BTW, the LXer article suggests it's a typical WP:NEWSBLOG. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 17:42, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
