Seemingly unoteable program. (No CSD for Programs) RandomTime 17:32, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - unsourced article makes no assertion of notability. - DustFormsWords (talk) 00:26, 20 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep. An article doesn't need to make an assertion of notability (that's for WP:CSD#A7, for which this isn't eligible): it needs to be on a notable subject. The subject of this article has been noted (so is notable) by about 60 scientific papers that cite the original polymake article. I think this should provide enough nontrivial reliable secondary sources about the subject to pass WP:GNG The article as it stands now is pretty miserable, but I think expansion is a better option than deletion. —David Eppstein (talk) 04:47, 22 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep. It seems to be notable in its scientific domain --Rirunmot 01:40, 26 October 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rirunmot (talk • contribs)

Delete: unsourced, little material (easily merged if notable). -- 李博杰 | —Talkcontribsemail 12:03, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. As David's search as well this search seems to indicate, the subject of the article is notable. Paul August☎ 19:18, 31 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Here's a more accurate book search that eliminates an unrelated program by the same name. There are still plenty of hits in the refined search. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:30, 31 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
