Can someone please explain what criteria this page needs to meet to be retained? I have tried to follow the same format as for other similar pieces of software. Let me know what's wrong and I'll happily do what I can to adhere to whatever rule it is that I've broken?! Just deleting it out from under me without giving me a clue as to what I did wrong is not very helpful - I'll only continue to make pages that are wrong. —Preceding

You have been given a clue twice. Read

I don't want to waste my time or yours re-submitting something until it achieves acceptability. Rather than clues, I was seeking some guidance - not on what is wrong with this page ("notability"), but what (if anything) could be done to gain approval. I'm not expecting a headline appearance on the BBC news any time soon, so what is a source you will find acceptable/realistic? How many references are needed to prove notability? Presumably I should add a references section and link to the sources (or should I post them here?) e.g. Is this a notable source: [
[1]] (search for Jason Williams - it's mentioned about half way down). Or this? [
[2]]. Thanks, and apologies if I'm wasting your time. —Preceding

Reply - Notability is generally established by demsontrating that this subject (in this case AtomineerUtils) has received significant coverage in multiple reliable sources independent of the subject. In the links you provided, we have somebody's personal page (nota reliable source), and a directory entry on MSDN (reliable, but doesn't really establish notability as there is no indication of rigorous editorial oversight in the coverage).
Delete - no coverage in reliable sources to establish notability. --
