don't need a whole article for one vendor's marketing term vsync (talk) 00:50, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
- Keep Article is as cited as it's going to get, and where Apple goes the rest of the display industry is eventually going to go (if under a different more general term). No real deletion reason beyond a not liking the term was presented. Nate • (chatter) 02:18, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
- And so will we then have an article for what Sony calls their slightly higher-resolution displays? And another for for Motorola's ever-so-smooth pixels? Dude, you're getting a...n article about whatever Dell will call it. vsync (talk) 04:52, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
- Comment Don't ever use the cite-needed tag to refactor AfD rationales of others. I have reverted your addition of it to my rationale because clearly I was talking in generalities, not like I was writing an article. Also, trademark means only Apple can use the term because they own the rights to the term, so other companies have to come up with a different name for their form of the technology.

- Keep Obviously meets the general notability guideline and other core policies like verifiability. The reasoning given in the nomination is not related to policy and does not abide by common sense, since we have tons of articles related to trademarked terms.

- I would be interested to see the list of articles each of which consist entirely of a single trademark, not for a product (or product line), but just a brand for a generic quality (not feature) not unique to that vendor. And the common sense aspect is simply that an explosion of such articles would serve no one. How about NPOV in giving Apple such pride of place? vsync (talk) 04:52, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
- You're still not making any kind of argument based in policy. Just because you don't like Apple's use of a marketing term doesn't mean it's not notable. Steven Walling • talk 07:12, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Technology-related deletion discussions. • Gene93k (talk) 02:44, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
- Keep and clean up. I'm not buying the slippery slope argument that vsync is presenting on account that all articles should each be taken on their own merits. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 04:56, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
- Keep Highly notable subject, may need some work but is widely known. --Camilo Sanchez (talk) 05:22, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
- Keep, then merge It meets WP:NOTE, but in the longer term when all the news excitement dies down in a year or so and these things become commonplace, it should eventually become a section in a larger article in the high resolution displays in that class. Users do search for this term (about 10,000 a day as of this writing), and as a service to them Misplaced Pages should provide the information. But in time, it will become a footnote in the history of displays and should just become a section in a larger article. But there is need for serious content clean up here.
