JuK

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable software. No unique features. Unsourced. Makes no claim to notability and does not provide sources showing notability. Run of the mill open source players are not inherently notable. Notable subjects have active editors and wikilinks. This article has no major edits in more than a year, and few wikilinks except for templates. Miami33139 (talk) 23:48, 16 February 2009 (UTC) Withdrawing my nomination. Being the default music player in KDE 3.2 is notable, too bad the article didn't state this. I added the sources provided by Scott Wheeler to the article. Thank you Scott. Miami33139 (talk) 00:52, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. Moderately well known software; article references external sources discussing the software. LotLE × talk  22:17, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Please base that statement on our notability criteria. The references in the article do not meet them. Miami33139 (talk) 23:00, 17 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment - I'm the original author of JuK, so I won't get involved in the debate other than to note that JuK has been covered a handful of times in print media. Here's the first example I could put my hands on: Linux Magazine: Play and manage your music with JuK 2.0  JuK was also for a period of time the default music player for SuSE and some other KDE-based Linux distributions.

 * Thank you Scott. That is a great reference.  Can you please give us another so they can be added to the article and the debate withdrawn? Miami33139 (talk) 00:01, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
