No indication of notability. The lone third-party source doesn't say what it's cited for and does not cover the typeface in any detail. Huon (talk) 22:23, 14 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I personally don't see lack of sources a threat to adequate accurate verifiable coverage here. This is a font and there is not much to add to the article, in theory, were the sources to exist. Gryllida (talk) 23:09, 14 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete This issue is not "accurate verifiable coverage", it's notability, and neither the article nor a google search reveal any sources that indicate the notability of this font. According to this message board post by the font creator, this was an amateur's first attempt at creating a font over a couple of days, and is a font that the other users of that forum called "about average for a free font from a first time designer". Barring extraordinary circumstances, it's hard to see how such a font could be notable. I'll also note that the article was created by Baville, who used to have the username Arman88, which sounds similar to the name of the font's creator Arman Ay. --Ahecht (TALK
