Notability

At the start of the Easy Java Simulations article the {{Notability}} box is still present. On this talk page the 'proposed deletion box', dating from november 2008 is still present

I propose to remove those two boxes.

As evidence that EJS is actively taken up as an educational tool I present the following links.

I've removed the notability tag on the basis of the links above -- I would encourage working them into the article itself as well. The "oldprod" template should stay here, since it informs editors about the history of the page, in particular letting them know that the proposed deletion process has already been exhausted. -David Schaich ^Talk/_Cont 16:09, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
