The result was '''delete'''. Popular is not a criteria for inclusion. Fails [[WP:GNG]]. Consensus is to delete ([[User talk:Bwilkins|<span style="font-variant:small-caps;">talk→</span>]]<span style="border:1px solid black;">''' [[User:Bwilkins|BWilkins]] '''</span>[[Special:Contributions/Bwilkins|<span style="font-variant:small-caps;">←track</span>]]) 16:29, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

Non-notable software, de-prodded without explanation or this being fixed. Existing 'refs' to project pages or Youtube, no reliable sources establishing notability. A web search turns up more of the same and some blogs. <small>[[User:JohnBlackburne|JohnBlackburne]]</small><sup>[[User_talk:JohnBlackburne|words]]</sup><sub style="margin-left:-2.0ex;">[[Special:Contributions/JohnBlackburne|deeds]]</sub> 10:41, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

*'''Keep''': Three.js is a kind of popular API in rendering 3D graphics in HTML5. It has more than 6000 watchers in GitHub, and some of the experiments in Chrome Experiments also used Three.js. See [http://www.chromeexperiments.com/search/results.html?q=three.js], [http://www.google.com/trends/?q=three.js], [http://hacks.mozilla.org/2012/03/1st-ever-mdn-hack-day-in-nyc/].
**Wikipedia's standard for inclusion is notability, not popularity, based on reliable secondary sources such as scholarly publications and mainstream press. The idea is that if it is really popular someone will take time to write about it, someone who does not have an interest in it, writing in a publication or format with a degree of editorial control (peer-reviewed or with a editorial policy).--<small>[[User:JohnBlackburne|JohnBlackburne]]</small><sup>[[User_talk:JohnBlackburne|words]]</sup><sub style="margin-left:-2.0ex;">[[Special:Contributions/JohnBlackburne|deeds]]</sub> 23:49, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

***'''Comment''': So you are saying Wikipedia is also open source and everyone can edit it so it is more likely to be not a reliable source and we shouldn't trust Wikipedia? -- [ [[User:Derekleungtszhei|<span title="Visit my user page">Derek Leung</span>]] | [[User_talk:Derekleungtszhei|<span title="Leave a message">LM</span>]] ] 02:13, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

<strong>Keep.</strong> This is an article about a popular Javascript API. Why should it be deleted? It is an important topic as it is used a lot for 3D animation in webpages. [[User:Llightex|Llightex]] ([[User talk:Llightex|talk]]) 01:20, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
