The result was redirect to List_of_Plan_9_programs. The single "Keep" vote here concedes that it is not based in policy. Lankiveil (speak to me) 12:37, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

Mothra (web browser)

I'm not convinced this software meets WP:GNG or WP:NSOFT. It gets a short mention in a workshop paper about GUIs for the Plan 9 operating system, but otherwise I couldn't find coverage in reliable, third-party sources. Q VVERTYVS (hm?) 09:40, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep as a requirement for being listed in List of web browsers as an actual browser which exists. I know that is not a policy reason, but consensus is that a browser cannot be in the list unless it has an article. I believe that reasoning is bogus, but it is what it is.

 * how about removing it from that list, then? Q VVERTYVS (hm?) 06:45, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
 * It will be when it goes red unless the article title is left as a redirect to Plan 9. VMS Mosaic (talk) 06:47, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Sounds like a fine alternative, although I would suggest the List of Plan 9 programs instead. Q VVERTYVS (hm?) 06:52, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete: It appears to not really be, or not be notable, if it be. The "List" article might solve its problem with a prose section that describes other browser implementations and developments? Hithladaeus (talk) 20:18, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
