From what I can see, DragonFireSDK isn't actually notable. It's not mentioned on the Google News archive, it's mentioned very briefly in one or two books, and the only non-press release mention I can find on Google is Dr Dobbs' recommendation, which I don't think counts as "notable" on its own. —ajf (talk) 21:07, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
There are six citations in the article:
- A listicle on a non-obviously notable tech site (I don't think this is notable)
- A press release (invalid, obviously)
- Two primary sources (invalid for notability, only verifiability)
- Dr. Dobbs Jolt Award post (is this notable?)
- A review on someone's blog (not notable)
So, they don't really make it seem notable. —ajf (talk) 21:12, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
User:Smuckola had some thoughts on this at Talk:DragonFire_SDK#Deletion which they decided not to post here, for whatever reason. —ajf (talk) 02:25, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
