Contested speedy (
notability concerns and whatever else people want to bring up. Please do not re-speedy this; a wheel-war is unnecessary. No opinion yet. Chaser - T 00:58, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply

- It's procedural; see Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#User:Ryulong. --Masamage ♫ 01:28, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - I don't think there's anything wrong with having articles on notable scientific software, and we have it on other examples of the general class... Georgewilliamherbert 01:30, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Yes, it needs some cleanup and wikifying, but the subject appears to be notable. As for the COI complaint, it does look like a NASA employee is the author, but COI isn't grounds for deletion. NASA isn't selling anything - there's a link to download the code for free - so I don't see how it can considered advertising. —talk 01:36, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - This article just needs work. It is highly inappropriate to delete on account of a possible COI. Please AGF and judge by content, not contributor. Acting based upon COI is not necessary (if the person is making bad edits, it doesn't matter that they have a COI), and can actually drive away or piss off editors with a knowledge/expertise in the subject.

- Keep per above. J Readings 01:51, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Though God forbid we should encourage people from NASA to write about science projects on Wikipedia just in case it crowds out all the fourteen year olds scribbling about their favourite wrestler. Nick mallory 01:53, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
