:({{Find sources AFD|Concept programming}})

This article describes a supposed computer programming paradigm that is not one of the well-known programming paradigms, and which has no citations to the computer science or software engineering literature, neither journal paper nor conference proceedings (the only "citation" is to an opinion piece in a technical blog). The only use of this so-called paradigm described in the article is by a one-person programming language (XL) by the same author (also without citations to the computer science literature).

Line 9 ⟶ 14:

This article violates both original research and notability wikipedia polices. Moreover, it is listed on the main "programming paradigm" template, where it is listed amongst genuine well-known paradigms and so will mislead computer science students who are likely to read it.

:*'''very weak overturn''' to merge to [[XL (programming language)]] or [[Christophe de Dinechin]]. No objection to delete. Per [[WP:MULTIAFD]] should we also be considering [[XL (programming language)]] (possible dab?) and [[[[Christophe de Dinechin]] ?

:*:*I agree that the additional articles also violate original research and notability guidelines. Therefore, I am also nominating the following related pages because XL (programming language) is a single author project with no citations to the computer science or software engineering literature, despite searches, and the author's article "Christophe de Dinechin" is non-notable, with the main claims being the non-notable XL and concept programming articles:

*'''Keep [[Christophe de Dinechin]] and weak merge for XL''' The Alpha Waves games was one of the first 3D Atari home games, that influenced several others including Alone in the Dark. [[User:Scope creep|scope_creep]] ([[User talk:Scope creep|talk]]) 09:44, 20 March 2018 (UTC several

::I think there should be with a long career several other instances of notabilty. I cant see anything about XL apart from trivial mentions. [[User:Scope creep|scope_creep]] ([[User talk:Scope creep|talk]]) 14:31, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

*'''Keep [[Christophe de Dinechin]] and merge [[XL (programming language)]]''' for reasons stated above, [[Christophe de Dinechin]]'s solid career is notable; while in my experience little-known paradigms, theories etc. tend to only have sources from one author, which appears to be the case here, and that doesn't make for a good article on its own when it could easily be merged.
