Comment The article clearly needs some expansion and doesn't pass WP:GNG with flying colours. However, there is no promotional wording in the article (admittedly because it is a stub). My gut feeling is that it is notable, but unfortunately no independent reliable sources have been published to fully back this up. The language's GitHub repository has 933 stars and 114 watchers so is used to a certain extent and is actively maintained. As pointed out above there are publications (1 and 2) by MIT about the article. — Jordan Mussi (talk • contribs) 13:59, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Keep. It has been published in a respectable conference proceedings and introduces some unique concepts. Time will tell whether it is historically influential, but I think it is notable enough to keep for now. Perhaps it could be merged into some other general article on this class of language, but I don't have any immediate thoughts on where. 58.182.250.23 (talk) 16:44, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
