- Comment - At present I am uncertain whether the Hula Girl download can be considered notable. I searched for independent professional reviews of it and found none. However, if you Google 'Hula Girl download' you will find the software available, maybe always free, from a number of sources. This software is merely a light-hearted edition to the user's computer dashboard and maybe no one thought a review was needed. In the article itself some problems that have to be resolved if this article is to remain. The I am not American video is merely a Youtube video. Two links in the article allow downloads of the software, Dashboard Widgets and Apple's website. However, the reviews on the Dashboard Widgets website are public online reviews (not considered very reliable). Four links in the article (Clubhouse54, petikas, John Williams, and the particular subaddress to the MacUpdate subsite) are dead links or broken. The link to Pennypacker does reach the site, but nothing on it mentions Hula Girl. I await to see what someone else finds before I cast a vote on this article.

- Delete—massively popular topic, but the popularity hasn't engendered the kind of commentary on which we could hang an article. Thanks to Bill Pollard for the legwork. Lesser Cartographies (talk) 16:07, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - It has been almost a week since I posted my comments and no one has come up with any reasons why this is notable. It seems ironic, since most days I am on the internet I see adverts for various Hula Girl download and car dashboard products. Bill Pollard (talk) 13:33, 6 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
