Zine (weblog software)

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

Non-notable software. Fails WP:N, WP:WEB, and WP:RS. Google returns nothing of interest. Lәo(βǃʘʘɱ) 15:59, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Two comments - (1) The word "zine" is popular in its own right, so any Google searches will be rife with noise-- more so if you search for "zine blog". (2) Looking at the official site, I'm a bit perplexed. It says it's written in Python, but it looks like a Wordpress clone of some sort. Not quite sure what to think.  In any case, it probably doesn't meet our notability criteria. — LinguistAtLarge • Talk  18:39, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Ack. Just drop the page (I suppose it could be reverted/rewritten if the software becomes popular) FranklinPiat (talk) 09:55, 15 May 2009 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, — A itias  //  discussion  00:01, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete - the name makes it difficult to search for soruces but using Zine with a various qualifiers doesn't turn up any sourcing that indicates notability. -- Whpq (talk) 15:08, 25 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep - This is a useful reference to a useful piece of software. Vivelequebeclibre (talk) 19:08, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - Is this usefulness documented in reliable sources? -- Whpq (talk) 19:10, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
