We have no consensus for including organizations, let alone categorizing on that basis. DCDuring TALK 18:14, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as overly particular.​—msh210 (talk) 05:23, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep simply because it shows a meaningful and strict relationship between 58 words, or possibly more words. Moreover, since we have criteria for the inclusion of products, it is very common and natural to mention their organizations in their sense lines. I believe it would be natural to categorize them by their organizations too, especially when we have dozens of words related to it. The category shows slangs, derogatory terms, official and unofficial names for products related to Microsoft. Searching for "Microsoft" by Special:Search is not much feasible or helpful, due to the enormous quantity of entries in Chinese that contain the piece of code "com.microsoft:en-gb:IE-SearchBox" and are unrelated to the company. --Daniel. 12:13, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per above. —Internoob (DiscCont) 23:34, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I honestly hate Microsoft, but I agree that Daniel makes a very good point. DAVilla 21:36, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Kept. --Daniel. 02:36, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
