Talk:Swift (parallel scripting language)

Article notability and sourcing?
This article has several problems, including:


 * none of the references establish notability
 * Notability seems tp be established: the official website gives lots of references to published research papers and conference proceedings (including serious sources such as IEEE and ACM) spread over several years (the first being 2007) (see Papers on the official site). THis should be largely sufficient to meet the criteria. --Christophe (talk) 20:56, 8 June 2014 (UTC)


 * possible conflict of interest, promotion or original research – the references appear to have been written by the editors making the major contribution to this article.
 * Not being involved in the research but having a background in distributed computing, I made an independent review of the article and verfied its references. I've also added references where missing, so it should be ok now --Christophe (talk) 21:46, 8 June 2014 (UTC).

As of this point, the article appears to have issues under all four of the main guidelines for deletion instructions, notability (WP:N), verifiability (WP:V), reliable sources (WP:RS, specifically the references appears to be works by the main editors of this article), and what Wikipedia is not (WP:NOT), and should probably be deleted. OTOH, if these can be resolved, I’d be happy to see it kept. Rwessel (talk) 15:49, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
 * should be ok now, so I've removed the corresponding markers --Christophe (talk) 21:46, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

original Swift
This was the first programming language called Swift, so it should have the aritcle 'Swift (programming language)' with Apple's name-infringing language moved to a new article.--206.63.237.146 (talk) 21:26, 10 September 2019 (UTC)
