Article was recreated after first Prod deletion, so now I'm brining it here. It's not a real term, only a slang term used in a few sources. Does not qualify as encyclopedic per WP:NEO. Probably not suitable for wikitionary either. Also remember to delete redirect page Craplets since the page was copied from there (should have been moved).

• Possible redirect to shovelware? Sounds like a related concept if not absolutely the same. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 18:24, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, or maybey even better, merge into Software bloat. Danski14 19:31, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, it's already discussed there. Is there someway I can withdraw this AfD? Or I guess we can just leave it up and see if anyone else has any better ideas. Danski14 21:46, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You can withdraw it and either close it yourself or have someone else do it, but who knows, maybe during the AfD someone will improve it. It can't hurt to let it go awhile. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 00:24, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Oops, I didn't know you could move a page. Anyways, I think you're right about the article not qualifying as encyclopedic, but I think that the practice of computer manufacturers loading up new computers with trial versions of applications (and receiving money from the application companies to do so) should be mentioned somewhere on Wikipedia. The question is which article is most appropriate. I put my vote in for Software bloat. WatchAndObserve 01:17, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hehe I almost forgot about this. Well, I think we should redirect to Software bloat. That article already mentions the term and explains the phenomena. We can also use the references there. Danski14 04:08, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
