Fails WP:GNG. The article's current sources do not contain significant coverage. (The Coding Horror piece only contains a few sentences, not quite significant coverage.) In a WP:BEFORE search, I could not find any more coverage other than self-published blogs, which are not reliable sources. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 05:35, 11 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep (currently weak sourcing) I found a book source but couldn't verify. There's a couple of what I consider WP:RS and another. Per WP:BLOGS "Self-published sources may be considered reliable if published by an established subject-matter expert" which Jeff Atwood source is 100%, but yes it is not SIG despite Jeff using the font, as per other programmer's blogs [1]. My understanding is that although the sourcing is currently weak, we are more accommodating of open-source compared to WP:NPRODUCT. Widefox; talk 10:55, 11 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect to List of monospaced typefaces after adding an entry for the fonts there. Available sourcing is too weak to justify keeping this as a standalone article. Sources are universally user-generated or self-published and there are few details available. Anonrfjwhuikdzz (talk) 23:39, 17 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Atwood is barely a passing mention in a list of fonts. Yeah he's an expert but nothing much about this. Andre🚐 08:23, 18 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
