:({{Find sources AFD|Cowboy coding}})
"Cowboy-" anything can mean "reckless and irresponsible." The meaning is no different when applied to code. It is not a Software Development Philosophy any more than doing anything badly is a philosophy. The only other "source" for this term is a circular reference back to this Wikipedia page. This article is entirely original (or a joke) and should be deleted. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:GlenPeterson|GlenPeterson]] ([[User talk:GlenPeterson|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/GlenPeterson|contribs]]) 00:15, 24 July 2015</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned -->
* '''Keep''' The term is commonly used and there are sources. The article never calls it a software development philosophy. More could be added, but AfD isn't the route to go to get those. I'm not sure why nominator stated that in nomination rational. I checked StickyMinds.com and there are many sources there, unfortunately most are restricted to members (I am one and membership is free). A simple Google search shows sever RSes in the first ten returned. [[User:Walter Görlitz|Walter Görlitz]] ([[User talk:Walter Görlitz|talk]]) 05:52, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
