 * Delete. I found the primary source for this,, but it has only 16 citations so far in Google scholar, and most of them are self-citations; CiteSeerX only found two citations, both self- ; 0 citations in ACM's digital library . The wiki page was written by the paper/language's author, User talk:Josedeoliveiraguimaraes. Wasn't able to find any other coverage. Pcap  ping  09:36, 17 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. Multiple publications about this language in reliable peer-reviewed academic journals. I see no requirement in WP:N that those publications are themselves cited in other publications.  As the journals are peer reviewed, the publications cannot be considered as non-independent of the authors of the language.  Also, speaking as a computer scientist, its type system sounds somewhat interesting, and it is the kind of thing we should probably keep a basic article on just as an example of variations on the normal way of doing things.
