NN statistical software package, WP:PROMO. I'd remove the promo, but there would be nothing left and I'd be accused of blanking the article. The HighBeam search stats cited as the reason for deprod are product reviews, press releases for product launches, and other information that serves only to verify existence (such as "we used SigmaStat to run X analysis." Notability of software is notoriously difficult, and there is no indication that the software is used any more than any other package. MSJapan ( talk) 04:19, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep. What's the issue with product reviews? SigmaStat has been the subject of in-depth reviews in The American Statistician [1] and InfoWorld [2]. I'd call that significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Qwfp ( talk) 10:56, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
- The issue is that MSJapan seems to be on a campaign to bring my deprods to AfD. ~ Kvng ( talk) 21:45, 18 June 2016 (UTC)

- Keep - Notability established by product reviews in reliable sources: [3], [4]. If you think you need to stubify the article because of WP:PROMOTIONAL issues, go ahead and give that a try but it's not something that AfD needs to be involved in. Rather than deleting the article or its contents, it would be better if you would tag the article or describe your concerns in a talk page post and give other editors time to make improvements; WP:NODEADLINE. ~ Kvng ( talk) 21:45, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
