The consensus of the first deletion discussion, all the way back in 2007, was that the article be merged into Ubuntu. Since then, the project appears to have died. The last stable release (an alpha) was in 2009, and both the project website and the mailing list are gone. No substantial additions to the article have been made since at least 2010. The project clearly fails WP:N; the only citations are dead links to the primary source. A single external link, amusingly entitled 'secondary source mentioning ULite', was last updated in 2006 and contains very little information. Fallingmasonry (talk) 15:50, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge into Ubuntu per proposal. No evidence of independent notability. --Colapeninsula (talk) 11:57, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm proposing the content be deleted, not merged. The project is not affiliated with Ubuntu or Canonical, it died before reaching completion, and there is no evidence it was ever notable. Fallingmasonry (talk) 14:36, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't oppose deletion, but it's something that could be mentioned in the Ubuntu article. --Colapeninsula (talk) 10:55, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

• Merge verified, encyclopedic information to Ubuntu (operating system). Northamerica1000^(talk) 19:56, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. This article has no reliable, substantial, independent source. There are a few sentences from a random internet blog. Unless better referances may be found, none of this information is in a usable state for Ubuntu. --Exeva (talk) 01:34, 30 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete No third-party sources and it's a non-noatble Linux distribution. No to merging with Ubuntu since it's not an official branch of that distribution. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 14:51, 30 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• References in Spanish. The trademark issue was covered in several websites in Spanish. This is the English wikipedia, though. 190.51.158.40 (talk) 19:52, 1 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • No, there are no valid secondary references from the Spanish wikipedia, they're all from u-lite.org. Exeva (talk) 23:49, 5 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. The project is dead. --Mekeor (talk) 19:41, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. The project is dead. It is not notable enough to keep in history. ***User:tyhee88
