Nomination for deletion: There are no independent sources to establish notability and Googling suggests there probably aren't any available anyway. Virtually all of the content is advertising and has been added by a series of SPAs, most of them identified only by an IP address. Other editors have already raised questions about neutrality and notability.

The citations offered are insufficient. Harry Cheng was the designer of the Ch interpreter which makes anything he wrote about it a primary source and not usable to establish notability. The only secondary sources cited are Francis Glassborow's "Member Experiences" of Ch and Tom Huber's "An Introduction to C and Ch." The Huber citation is unhelpful as it's actually not a secondary source discussing Ch, it's a book review. The Glassborow article is a weak citation: This isn't a PDF, there's no page number and all we have is the text of the article, posted to the website of the vendor. It's not clear if Glassborow article was in a print or online publication and the title and lede suggests this may not have been intended a formal review so much as simply yet another member experience post to a discussion group.
