Article fails WP:NOT. Wikipedia is not a directory or a repository of links. Hu12 04:26, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep or move into Wikipedia: space --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 05:01, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. A category to organize relevant articles is sufficient - Zim Zala Bim talk  13:13, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep The ones listed here are notable projects. There has been a consistent effort, demonstrated in the page history, to keep out minor ones and spam. If it looks long, it's because there are many of them. The material presented here gives a brief identification of the type oand nature ofthe project, which cannot be done in a cateogry. Therefore, this is sufficiently usefulll as to be justified by the list guidelines. DGG (talk) 16:37, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep There are more than 50 redlinks in the article, which cannot be included in a category; the list is easier to navigate than categories; a lot of library projects are mentioned that are perhaps not quite notable enough for individual articles, but are important enough to be mentioned (especially in Wikipedia, since they also make quality information accessible on the internet); and it is an acceptable spin-off of the parent article Digital library, with too much information to be merged back into the main article.

 * Keep per DGG and Blathnaid. --Gwern (contribs) 21:30 9 November 2007 (GMT)
 * Keep - These are notable projects and the list fits well with WP:SAL. Subdolous 21:55, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep There are "directories" and there are navigational tools, and this is the latter. Mandsford 01:04, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
