I read the article three times and I still don't know what Visual Networking is. I am, however, pretty certain that this article is almost completely original research. CIreland (talk) 17:12, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - I don't think the proposer's own lack of comprehension for the subject is sufficient to warrant the article's deletion. Although unsourced and generally untidy, I am sure that sources could be found for it (quick google search returns some valid referencing material). Although it looks like it has been copied from somewhere (from a quick glance), it still needs a tidy up of prose and layout, with references being a must. The article looks valid to me, and although I have no knowledge of the subject, can't see a valid reason to delete it. It's only had a week - if in a few weeks nothing has changed with no references added or notability of the subject asserted, then by all means deletion might be warranted.

• Delete. This is an essay, and smells very much like a copyvio, and is POV regardless. The term is most often seen as an entry point to visualization for network analysis, or outside computing, for making network charts (e.g. company-to-company relationships). I am not finding a good primary source for this topic as "visualized" by the creator. --Dhartung | Talk 17:59, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete This reads like a college writing assignment or corporate presentation. It's all padding, written in theoretical terms and with no actual information. The subject's notability is also highly questionable: search engine searches for the phrase return unrelated results. I suspect this subject may have been made up by the author.
