*:The programming language is being used by many people other than the language creator (in this case Andreas Rumpf). Just take a look at http://3dicc.com/terf-news/2015/3/25/terf-rendering-power-upgrade-announced, http://nimio.us/, and of course Github https://github.com/search?l=nimrod&o=desc&q=stars%3A%3E=0&s=updated&type=Repositories -- [[User:dom96|<span style="color:#3B3B3B">dom</span><span style="color:#097FBA">9</span><span style="color:#1B8C04">6</span>]] ([[User talk:Dom96#top|talk]]) 10:19, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
*::Is harvard.edu a notable and reliable source? http://abel.harvard.edu/computing/nim/index.html? In addition to that there is a wide range of articles by independent bloggers about Nim, some even compare Nim to Rust (Rust is notable and I consider it on the same level as Nim, http://arthurtw.github.io/2015/01/12/quick-comparison-nim-vs-rust.html). There is also a very big presence on Rosetta Code: http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Category:Nim -- [[User:dom96|<span style="color:#3B3B3B">dom</span><span style="color:#097FBA">9</span><span style="color:#1B8C04">6</span>]] ([[User talk:Dom96#top|talk]]) 10:25, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
*:::I don't think harvard.edu counts, no. If it was published by an established computer science professor then perhaps (see [[WP:USERGENERATED]]), but usually we look for things like articles in actual academic journals, or books, or news publications. — '''''[[User:Mr. Stradivarius|<span style="color: #194D00; font-family: Palatino, Times, serif">Mr.&nbsp;Stradivarius</span>]]''''' <sup>[[User talk:Mr. Stradivarius|♪&nbsp;talk&nbsp;♪]]</sup> 10:45, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
