Created by a WP:SPA, fails WP:PROMOTION. The subject is on a self-proclaimed campaign to promote the Smalltalk programming language, and this page seems to be part of the campaign. Even if the campaign is notable (which I dispute), this page would fail WP:BLP1E. There's little to no independent reliable coverage of the subject. The references in the article are largely blogs, self published, or promotional (e.g. the subject's gofundme page). Pburka (talk) 18:37, 15 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete - The article reads like a promotional brochure for Smalltalk. There are no reliable sources and zero independent coverage of the subject. Clearly fails WP:BLP. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 19:29, 15 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. Lack of reliable sources or depth of coverage. Article appears to be a promotional piece.Knox490 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 00:34, 16 April 2017 (UTC)
