Twidge

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

This brief article describes what (at least for now, and Wikipedia is not a crystal ball) is a non-notable product. After searching for it, I have found no significant coverage in reputable sources (the referenced six-sentence description of the product certainly doesn't qualify).

 * Twidge is the first command-line twitter-client, and it's a first twitter-client written in Haskell programming languge. And, this program is versalite and can work in semi-authomated way, for example, via cron and can be integrated with mail system on Unix-like operating system. Also twidge was included in Debian distro. So, twidge is notable product. -- Roman Lagunov (talk) 11:52, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
 * That's great . . . but can you find references that demonstrate notability as defined in the Wikipedia policies? I don't think that everything including in an OS distribution is automatically notable, nor is being the first in any number of categories. What is required is "significant coverage" in "reliable sources"? "Significant" has a specific definition in the above-referenced policy, so it might be helpful to review it if you want to make comments that have more weight.
 * My point was not about "first in category", but about "unique features" which twidge has. None of the twitter clients that exists today are offers features such as ability of integration with MDA or scriting capabilities that twidge has. But I see your point about "reliable sources". But twidge was released only in September, that's the problem - program is really young. So, I'm trying to find reliable sources. -- Roman Lagunov (talk) 13:48, 9 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete. This software is new, and sounds wonderful, really, but I see no notability here. -- Dennis The Tiger   (Rawr and stuff) 19:03, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Once notability is established, the article can be re-created with reliable sources. Theseeker4 (talk) 17:32, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
