Wireless asset monitoring systems or software might reside in the realm of speciality inventory control products which report on telemetry wirelessly; the article is not describing anything noteworthy or encyclopedic. Even "widget" carries more weight in terms of notability and that phrase redirects to an article called Placeholder name. Flibbertigibbets (talk) 02:16, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

- Delete - Fails WP:GNG and also lacks any WP:V & WP:INDEPENDENT available sources in the article Pranesh Ravikumar (talk) 05:14, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
:Delete per WP:TNT. I'm not 100% convinced this fails GNG, but if an article should exist, this isn't it. ℰmi1y⧼T·C⧽ 08:34, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. I'm not seeing an awful lot wrong with this. This article should probably be at the title Asset monitoring or Asset monitoring system but these systems are frequently (maybe nearly always nowadays) wireless and the WAM acronym exists in the wild so the title is not so bad. "Asset monitoring system" is clearly notable;

- [https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/9140484 A Battery-free Asset Monitoring System based on RF Wireless Power Transfer], IEEE
- [https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/5431407 RFID asset monitoring system for laboratory environment], IEEE
- [https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=EdXkDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA219 "Case study for the asset monitoring focused on facility management"], Springer Nature
: I don't agree that this is a TNT case. It is a reasonable basis for further expansion. Yes, it currently has no sources in the article, but nothing it says is outright wrong and WP:AFD is not cleanup and WP:NEXIST says sources don't have to be in the article to keep it.

::It's not clear to me that these references are describing the same thing as the article. 1 and 3 are just applications of passive RFID tags; 2 is RFID tags + measuring time between scans at different places to calculate speed. (I can't see the last because Google's doing the "you've seen too many pages of this book" thing.) Wireless asset monitoring system, however, appears to be talking about a specific system involving industrial sensors and active transmission.
::If this page does exist, it should be about the concept generally and not about this one product. I can't imagine a good article incorporating any of what's there currently. ℰmi1y⧼T·C⧽ 08:33, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect, to condition monitoring, as the subject is already better covered there. SailingInABathTub ~~🛁~~ 02:27, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
- :Yes, on review, the closest comparison to the article would be Condition monitoring; but there is another (non-related) technology using the same term Inventory tagging that is ubiquitous (but that is not what this article is about.
- :The article is about a speciality product - with virtually no coverage.

- :https://store.ncd.io/product/wireless-asset-monitor-sensor/ There was a bit of confusion on my part, and in the afd notes, as to exactly what this product is. It is being confused with RFID tagging. WAM can be an acronym to describe anything especially in the marketing of products. Yes, as you found it is already covered.

- Delete per WP:TNT. AfD is not cleanup, but this is beyond cleanup. The article title plausibly refers to a broad range of topics, but the content is specifically about wireless telemetry which is not usually what "asset monitoring" means at all. What's more the content seems to be describing a very specific application of wireless telemetry and is unverifiable, outdated, and manifestly misleading. There is nothing worth keeping here and no useful redirect IMHO. Blow it up. Thparkth (talk) 14:25, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
