::::::In spite of what this previous post might appear to be, respondent has no history of dispute with me and I can and do assume good faith going forward.  [[User:Unscintillating|Unscintillating]] ([[User talk:Unscintillating|talk]]) 00:00, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

:::::::I don't know if you're trying to wikilawyer your way into something or what, but it's just not needed. A lack of past interaction between us has nothing to do with anything we've been discussing.--[[User: Yaksar|Yaksar]] [[User talk: Yaksar|(let's chat)]] 01:27, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

:::::If you don't know, or don't care, about the circumstances of the previous AfD you should not have mentioned it. Yaksar is correct; you are not acting in good faith. You've only brought it up because you saw in it an opportunity for deliberate bad-faith obstructionism.

::::::To whom it may concern, this is respondent's previous response to me [https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/2006_rugby_union_handbag_controversy&diff=413441906&oldid=413437584 here].&nbsp; Suggest that respondent use "IMO" more often.&nbsp; [[User:Unscintillating|Unscintillating]] ([[User talk:Unscintillating|talk]]) 00:00, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

:::::::And? Your point? I said, "I agree with opinions X and Y" and you replied with "snigger snigger thanks for your opinions on opinions X and Y, but what are ''your'' opinions snigger snigger" as though it wasn't blatantly obvious that I shared those opinions. I don't like being talked down to, and called you on it. It's not a big deal, and irrelevant to this discussion.

*'''KEEP''' Based on the reasons I gave only a week or two ago. Pure is a language which has a number of developers, an active mailing list, peer reviewed articles describing it. The are distributions for many Linux systems - none to my knowledge produced by the main developer, but others consider the language sufficiently important. Can anyone point out one possible benefit of removing the article? Would Wikipedia be better without this article? Of course not. I'm not a user of the language, but realise it is an important language. Any idiot can hook up lex and yacc and make their own language, but Pure is well thought out.

**No one's arguing it's not useful or important. But without sources to show this, it doesn't matter.--[[User: Yaksar|Yaksar]] [[User talk: Yaksar|(let's chat)]] 00:19, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Line 52:

*'''Keep''' per the keep votes above. I believe this article adds value to Wikipedia and should not be removed. Also a [http://blueparen.com/node/6 new article all about Pure] was recently posted on blueparen.com. [[User:mudgen|''<font color="187ba0" size="2px">mudgen</font>'']] ^{([[User talk:mudgen|talk]])}
