PWCT (programming language)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Apparently minor programming language sourced only to blog reviews and articles written by the developer. (Possible COI; article creator User:Msfclipper has only edited articles related to the work of Mahmoud Samir Fayed - namely this and Supernova (programming language).)

Prod template was removed with the rationale that the TIOBE index ranked it as the 101st most mentioned programming language online when it added it to their list earlier this month at the developer's request, but the significance of this is unclear.

Delete. Same lack of suitable sources to establish notability noted in the related WP:Articles for deletion/Supernova (programming language), so I won't repeat it here. If, as I expect, consensus is to delete and Msfclipper would like to continue working on it, he should request that this article also be userfied. Msnicki (talk) 17:43, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You only get to !vote once in an AfD, Msfclipper. If you add anything else, it should be a comment. The fact that it's on sourceforge or that it's been downloaded a lot or even that it has a lot of likes on Facebook is unhelpful in establishing notability as defined here Wikipedia. To establish notability here requires reliable, independent secondary sources. We can accept nothing else. Those sources do not appear to exist for this product.
