*'''Delete''' Per nom. {{reply to|Caroliano}} ycombinator, reddit, and slashdot are not reliable sources, so Nim's presence on them is irrelevant. ycombinator is a startup culture, they'll praise nearly anything. 400 repositories on github by 55 people, also irrelevant to the discussion here, is actually pretty low. {{AnonIP|80.134.235.230}} It's not listed in the Redmonk programming language rankings... &#8213;<span style="background:#8FF;border:solid 1px;border-radius:8px;box-shadow:darkgray 2px 2px 2px">&nbsp;[[User:Padenton|<span style="font-family:Old English Text MT;color:#C00">Padenton</span>]]&#124;[[User talk:Padenton|&#9993;]]&nbsp;</span>&nbsp; 14:50, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
::'''Comment''' – It is on the chart, way down at the bottom left corner. I think I'm going to change my !vote to weak keep, due to the activity by the user community. The bar for programming languages has always been quite low. Generally all we require is that it be in use by someone other than the creators. And apparently it is, which is more than we could say of the others that have appeared here recently. But I really would like to encourage the users to get some respectable references. Currently the article is citing [http://forum.nim-lang.org/t/61/1#319 this], about the guy who couldn't get his routine to return an integer. That's not the kind of reference that shows notability. –&nbsp;[[User:Margin1522|Margin1522]] ([[User talk:Margin1522|talk]]) 17:49, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
