*'''Delete'''. Non-notable academic language. The only publications about it was written by people from the same research group, and appeared in an obscure journal. That journal article has yet to be cited by anyone else. Above !voters clearly did not know how to evaluate such a source.

*: Also, the articles on both the [[Parallax,_Inc._(company)]] and [[Parallax_Propeller]] have zero third-party references to establish notability. [[User:VasileGaburici|VG]] [[User_talk:VasileGaburici|&#x260E;]] 22:59, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

** Interestingly, I always though that the Parallax Propeller and Spin was created by Chip Gracey and his company, Parallax, a commercial company that markets a commercial product. I see no evidence that this is a academic language. The ACM claims that David A Scanlan and Martin A Hebel have only been affiliated with the Illinois State University and the Southern Illinois University respectively and not Parallax. It appears that either an assessment has been incorrectly made or there is a misunderstanding. [[User:Rilak|Rilak]] ([[User talk:Rilak|talk]]) 04:58, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

*'''Delete'''. One acedemic paper does not make something notable, most PhDs produce many more, but don't get their own wiki articles. Redirect if an expert knows where to[[User:Yobmod|Yobmod]] ([[User talk:Yobmod|talk]]) 10:20, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
