:: Refer to WP:NTEMP 2nd paragraph ({{xt|While notability itself is not temporary, ...}}). QEnigma talk 07:56, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

:::Could you elaborate on what you mean by citing this policy? Aaron Liu (talk) 14:39, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

  • Weak keep: Article desperately needs expansion from the two sources cited, which do give it notability. I dunno what @QEnigma means as those are clearly both independent sources. Aaron Liu (talk) 14:47, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
  • Delete. .NET Developer's Journal appears to be more of a blog than a reliable source that demonstrates notability. [https://web.archive.org/web/20190708130202/http://kevinalons.sys-con.com/ The author] of the article appears to only have written one article for that outlet and does not appear to be a journalist.

  • :The journal has a then-big publisher, Sys-Con Media, that hosts the cloud development expo advertised at the bottom. Looking at Groklaw#Media controversy, they have some sort of editing process that allowed tons of false claims to slip through, including the doxxing of a FOSS law reporter for no apparent reason. You're correct that the source's reliability is questionable, and on further review, it has little information (though addressed directly). Now that there's only one good source, I'll change my !vote to neutral. {{pb}}We don't need journalists to write articles and reviews about software to have notability; not sure what you meant by that part.
