Prod removed. Nonnotable software, no indication of notability. I see no sources outside of the typical sourceforge sources, and more imporantly, no indication is given in the article Shadowjams (talk) 09:48, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

:: Hello, I added some argument on the discussion page. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Getting_Things_GNOME! ). The main arguments are an article about this software notability are a reviews on Ars Technica and LifeHacker (two websites that have a wikipedia entry about them). Also, LifeHacker is not at all related with the OpenSource/Software world, meaning that GTG has reached a broader audience than the core Linux users. Also, GTG has an entry on French wikipedia with contributions of two established wikipedian. As such, it looks like GTG has reached a notability already greater than some other GNOME software with existing wikipedia pages (Galago_(software) for example). Admitelly, the software is young (less than a year) and its success is even younger (steadily growing since March 2009) but I, as a non experienced wikipedian, believe that the relatively young age of the project is not a discriminant factor. I'm of course biaised about this, being one of the developer, but I try to be as honnest as possible ;-) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zeploum (talkcontribs) 14:29, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

  • Weak keep based on the Ars and LifeHacker articles. Those are both particularly big blogs, so being mentioned in them is a decent indication of notability. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 07:34, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
  • Weak delete I'm sorry but most blogs, regardless of the size, aren't reliable sources. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 23:25, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

  • Delete While a newsvine can indicate notability, a blog generally does not. Unless there is something else to indicate notability I'd say delete.Fuzbaby (talk) 00:53, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete No assertion of notability. Triplestop x3 02:13, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete Not notable, not many sources. TheWeakWilled 19:18, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete No assertion of notability, lifehacker is not an indication of notability. Jonathan Hall (talk) 19:56, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
