The result was '''no consensus whatsoever'''. If someone wants to merge the article then that is a matter for the talk page or some BOLDness. [[User:Stifle|Stifle]] ([[User talk:Stifle|talk]]) 15:46, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

This programming language does not meet the general notability guideline. The only information I could find about this language is 1) the main website 2) a powerpoint made by the author, that the author posed on lambda-the-ultimate 3) an unpublished pdf from the author about Cat's type system and 4) an artima.com article written by the author. Additionally, the author is the one who added this article to Wikipedia... [[User:Christopher Monsanto|Christopher Monsanto]] ([[User talk:Christopher Monsanto|talk]]) 17:37, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

*'''Delete'''. Not notable, not used, and, frankly, anyone can make their own programming language if they know [[lex (software)|lex]] and [[yacc]]. --[[User:Mukkakukaku|<fontspan colorstyle="color:#006600;">[[User:Mukkakukaku|'''M'''û'''ĸĸ'''â'''ĸ'''û'''ĸ'''â'''ĸ'''û]]</fontspan>]] _{<small>([[User talk: Mukkakukaku|blah?]])</small>} 00:42, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

*'''Merge''' to [[Joy (programming language)]].&nbsp; I have no basic objection to merging to [[Stack-oriented programming language]], but a merge to Joy I think would make more sense.&nbsp; Joy is lacking some sources that are present in the Cat article, and Cat has a section comparing Joy and Cat.&nbsp; [[User:Unscintillating|Unscintillating]] ([[User talk:Unscintillating|talk]]) 06:47, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
