Lacks reliable independent secondary sources to establish notability as required by WP:GNG, Sources offered are all WP:PRIMARY, WP:SPS or trivial and thus unsuitable. Googling turned up nothing useful. Though not by itself a reason to delete, I note that the author of the article clearly has a WP:COI. Wikipedia is not for WP:PROMOTION.

 * delete -- I am unaware of any significant coverage such as required by the notability guideline. The sparse existing non-trivial (more than mentioning its existence) coverage overlooked by the author of the topic is dismissive as well TEDickey (talk) 08:25, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete. I don't think there's any significant coverage of this text editor anywhere obvious.  It's interesting how many irrelevant hits you can get for .  I don't know how people can possibly tie together Stevie Ray Vaugn, Pope Benedict XVI, and text editors, but at least one person managed to do so.  Anyway, it's already briefly described at Vi, so I don't think a merge is necessary.  Given the few incoming links from other pages and the disambiguation, I don't think a redirect would be very helpful.  However, it could be redirected to Vi.

 * A martinwguy at GitHub and a User:Martinwguy2 here is sub-optimal, the solution suggested by NinjaRobotPirate makes sense, let's keep a redirect. –Be..anyone (talk) 17:22, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete certainly not an article. Optionally redirect, but its not well mown enough to be needed.  DGG ( talk ) 02:31, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
