The result of the debate was '''Keep (No consensus)'''.I think 2 relists is enough to establish we do not have consensus one way or the other. --'''[[User:Lar/Esperanza|<span style="color:green;">+</span>]][[Special:Emailuser/Lar|+]]'''[[User:Lar|Lar]]: [[User_talk:Lar|t]]/[[Special:Contributions/Lar|c]] 04:21, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

* '''Delete''' Non-notable. "with ADvantages Over Windows" hardly makes it unique.

'''Comment''' As Vegaswikian says, at best a Merge into the language article. I've no objection to that being done.

*'''Weak keep''' A Google search for "Meadow" and "emacs" seems to indicate that it is quite popular among Japenese Windows users. <b>[[User:Ohnoitsjamie|<fontspan facestyle="font-family:Arial"; color=":#D47C14;">OhNo</span>]][[User:Ohnoitsjamie|OhNo]]</font><fontspan colorstyle="color:#7D4C0C;">[[User:Ohnoitsjamie|itsJamie]]</fontspan>]][[User talk:Ohnoitsjamie|^Talk]]</b> 20:40, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

*'''keep''' Disk space is cheap, human effort isn't. No real reason to delete it, and well, almost all open source projects start small. [[User:Bryce|Bryce]] 22:10, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

*'''Redirect''' to the main Emacs article and add a one-line mention about this port in there. The article is really devoid of real information anyway. -- [[User:Hirudo|Hirudo]] 14:53, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

** &lt;nitpick&gt; It's a port of an editor, not a language &lt;/nitpick&gt; -- [[User:Hirudo|Hirudo]] 19:25, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

<div style="text-align: center">''This AfD is being relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new discussion below this notice. Thanks!''<br/>[[User:Prodego|<fontspan colorstyle="color:darkgreen;">''Prodego''</fontspan>]] ^{[[User talk:Prodego|<fontsup colorstyle="color:darkgreen;">talk</fontsup>]]} 15:45, 3 June 2006 (UTC)</div>

*'''Keep'''. It's not just a port. What Meadows achieves is to extend the capabilities of emacs to make it suitable for use in complicated linguistic environments, such as the [[Japanese writing system]], in which a literate user needs to be able to freely combine [[Kanji]] with two [[syllabary|syllabaries]]: [[Hiragana]] and [[Katakana]]. --[[User:Lambiam|Lambiam]][[User talk:Lambiam|<small>^Talk</small>]] 16:17, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

*'''Delete''' - Whether or not its useful doesn't matter in my opinion as far as WP-ness. However, there is no verifiable info/sources or any claims of the usage of such an application (eg. do a lot of people use it?). Not every piece of potentially useful software gets its own article.
