Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Nim (programming language) (5th nomination)

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was keep. A large percentage of the keep comments here have no grounding in policy; what matters is whether there are reliable sources providing significant coverage of the programming language, not how many pageviews the article receives, whether you like it, or whether it is merely related to notable things. Even with these arguments discounted, there is consensus that sufficient sourcing exists to establish the notability of the subject. Many sources are recent, challenging the nominator's claim that the language has faded into obscurity, and making the previous discussions in 2015 and earlier less applicable. Of course, there is also consensus that the article needs substantial trimming and improved sourcing, and that it should not be linked inappropriately from other articles, but neither of these are reasons for deletion. — The Earwig (talk) 00:57, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
