:({{Find sources AFD|Cowboy coding}})
Northeastern US residents sometimes use the term "Cowboy" derogatorily to mean reckless or irresponsible. Sticking the word "Cowboy" in front of the word "Coding" doesn't make it a software development philosophy. It is a [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia_is_not_a_dictionary#Neologisms|Neologism]] - it just means the same thing as "Cowboy-anything" but applied to code.

::What makes you think that? Two entries from the c2.com wiki (see [http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WikiIsNotWikipedia Wiki is not Wikipedia]) and Mick West's personal web site (which starts its definition with a link to this article in Wikipedia) do not constitute reliable sources in my estimation. The reference to Google's 20% Time does not use the words "Cowboy Coding". I don't have a copy of Software Project Management by Hughes/Cotterell to check that reference, so it's possible that 1 out of the 5 sources **could** be legitimate. With all the programming resources available online, that is the best the world could come up with in the 8 years this article has been around? Instead of making vague "the sources are out there" statements, it's time to see those sources if people want to save this article.[[User:GlenPeterson|GlenPeterson]] ([[User talk:GlenPeterson|talk]]) 18:57, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
::: You mean [[:Ward Cunningham]]'s blog is not a reliable source on software development terms? I added more sources from a software development website. I think the problem, based on your comments on your talk page and the article's talk page, is that it's an term used by American software developers.
