• Keep Hi Joe Chill, what do you miss in this article? Maybe I could help and insert it. I think this article should be in Wikipedia because this application is really popular among mac users and considered kind of standard for project management on the mac. --ViStam (talk) 09:40, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Merlin is an excellent project management application, in many ways superseding MS Project and many other Windows offerings. Googling "Merlin" may not provide many references to the app for obvious reasons, however it is widely recognised in Mac project management community.

• Keep It is very important Merlin remains in Wikipedia! Because Merlin is a standard application like MS Project, but for the Mac. I saw also many job announcements where Merlin is requested for Project Management, as Photoshop is used for image manipulation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.8.92.234 (talk) 14:44, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep This product is one of the Project Management applications for the Mac. [5] and is a truly excellent piece of software, and as such should be kept so as to inform readers of the range of options that are availabvle —Preceding unsigned comment added by PaulR2010 (talk • contribs) 14:50, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Merlin2 is one of the best project management applications available for use on the Mac. In a windows/Microsoft dominated world, alternatives should be embraced, not deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Martinjohnhickey (talk • contribs) 20:49, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
