::[[User:Chris the Paleontologist|CtP]] International Journal of Advancements in Technology, Vol 3, No 1 (2012) - http://www.ijict.org/index.php/ijoat/article/view/open-source-software/pdf_30 - "Web-Developer Server Suite" is listed as being one of the '''major''' (can read as - notable) projects in the web-related-area... Right next to [[Xampp]]. That's one more citation I'll add to the article. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Vorlion|Vorlion]] ([[User talk:Vorlion|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Vorlion|contribs]]) 21:53, 12 November 2012 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:::Okay, that's a good starting point. But I still feel that the suite lacks the "significant coverage" required to meet the GNG. Inclusion in a list doesn't necessarily mean it's notable (things are similar on Wikipedia—things which aren't considered "notable" can still be included on lists). With regards to your dissatisfaction with the GNG as a tool to assess notability for Web.Developer Server Suite, the only other guideline which might be applicable is [[Wikipedia:Notability (software)]] (although it's not really a "guideline" at all, just an essay). The criteria for inclusion are quite similar to the GNG, though.

::::The 'International Journal of Advancements in Technology' article includes a list of OSS projects at the end. According to the reference in that article, the list was copied from Wikipedia's [[List of free and open-source software packages]]. - [[User:MrOllie|MrOllie]] ([[User talk:MrOllie|talk]]) 01:08, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
 
*'''Delete''' clearly fails WP:GNG lacking WP:RS. aggressive [[WP:BLUDGEON]]ing does not advance notability. [[User:LibStar|LibStar]] ([[User talk:LibStar|talk]]) 23:31, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
