This has passed through AfC after a lot of drama. See discussion here at Talk:AfC, the old draft here, this COIN discussion, and this ANI discussion. I believe that this subject ~just~ makes it through N, and I support this article being here to tone down the disruption caused by advocates of this product and its rival, Pfsense. But am opening a deletion discussion to get feedback after User:Staszek Lem tagged this for N. So let's keep this or delete this already. Jytdog (talk) 20:54, 11 December 2017 (UTC)

- '
delete'.No evidence of particular notability beyond a couple of press-releases. and run-ff-the-mill reviews. Staszek Lem (talk) 21:02, 11 December 2017 (UTC)- Stroke down the vote temporarily, to review the issue better. Staszek Lem (talk) 21:12, 11 December 2017 (UTC)

- Comment Brief review of available sources:
- Two references already in the article:
- Linux Format magazine article reposted on techradar.com; comparison of 5 products, OPNsense gets smaller than 1/5 share of the article; RS
- infoworld.com (in the article is repost via CIO); comparison of 6 products; behind paywall, can´t say how much content devoted to OPNsense; RS
- Best other sources I found so far:
- pro-linux.de - mid size news about version 17.7 (German); webpage claims [1] to have "Redaktion", but it looks like one man staff; still, probably RS
- root.cz - solid looking comparison of both pfSense a OPNsense (Czech speakers only...); claims to have editorial oversight over submited articles [2]; probably RS
- heise.de/iX - mid size news about version 17.1 (German); RS
- heise.de/iX (German) - short to mid size news about version 16.7; RS
- pfSense vs OPNsense editwar reminds me of Blue/Red war among Amiga users few years ago... There is some RS coverage, but not yet in quality I would like. Despite that, I´m leaning to keep. Pavlor (talk) 16:11, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
- Two references already in the article:
- Keep - I accepted this AfC submission based on what I saw as favorable analysis of sources in this discussion. ~Kvng (talk) 19:36, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
- Keep per above comments. Seraphim System (talk) 03:03, 13 December 2017 (UTC)
- Keep - I agree with the above. Additionally, more euro based sources exist as well as Wikipedia pages in other languages. See:
