Original AfD was improperly closed as Speedy Keep because of the nature of the Nominator. Google indicates no reliable sources. There are many multitudes of scripting languages, but most are not notable. There are no reliable sources to indicate this one forth-derivative language is more notable than any of the thousands of others. HominidMachinae (talk) 06:56, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete--lacks significant coverage from multiple independent and reliable sources.--Yaksar (let's chat) 16:58, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak delete for the Acorn AMPLE. There seems to be one book that mentions the Acorn one [1], but the rest seems fanboy-produced material. Lacking any other sources, the topic does not appear notable enough for Wikipedia. It seems to have had no long term impact on the genre. FuFoFuEd (talk) 20:26, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Let me see if the other one is notable. The shouldn't be a single article on two unrelated languages sharing just a name anyway, see WP:DAB. FuFoFuEd (talk) 20:30, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete the Falcon/Mentor AMPLE. I can find some passing mentions to their larger products in Google Books, but nothing remotely detailed on their scripting language used therein. FuFoFuEd (talk) 20:33, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
