This article has come under discussion though another unrelated thing over at the anime and manga project, concerns include: The article being entirely original research, no sources are present, and also fails WP:Notability as it lacks third party sources.

  • Delete Just to restate my comments from WT:ANIME, the article is entirely original research, has no sources whatsoever (an image gallery is not a source), and does not shows any indications of notability via reliable, third-party sources. Further, this term falls into the category of neologisms as a Google search for reliable sources does not turn up anything. —Farix (t | c) 17:34, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
  • Comment I'm not convinced this isn't notable just from my personal experience at having seen a number of these programs over the years, but if nothing concrete can be found then it should probably go. ♫ Melodia Chaconne ♫ (talk) 19:11, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete OR, no notability shown from reliable sources.--Yaksar (let's chat) 19:16, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
  • Comment: [http://www.google.com/cse?cx=009114923999563836576%3A1eorkzz2gp4&ie=UTF-8&q=%22window+sitter%22+OR+%22window-sitter%22 CSE hits]. Incidentally, it would not be difficult at all to write a Wiktionary entry for the unrelated Japanese term given the CSE hits and the many [http://www.google.com/search?tbm=bks&q=%22window+sitter%22+OR+%22window-sitter%22 Google Books] hits. --Gwern (contribs) 21:09 27 February 2011 (GMT)
  • Move to Wiktionary - there seems enough to at least describe a term, but yea, I don't see enough for notability.陣内Jinnai 23:21, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

  • Question I've seen many of these over the years too but haven't found a reliable source, like a CNet review. Is this a type of software where it could be included as a brief entry in a list, with this as a redirect? TransUtopian (talk) 22:40, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete as original research, unless anyone can find some coverage in a reliable source. Robofish (talk) 20:36, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete Unsourced, Not Notable, Original Research. Agree that it should be in Wictionary. Guy Macon (talk) 21:09, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
