Lacks reliable independent secondary sources to establish notability as required by WP:GNG. Sources offered are all WP:PRIMARY or, in the case of the benchmark source, fail even to mention the subject. Googling turned up nothing useful. Msnicki (talk) 21:11, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

- Keep—I was able to find these additional reliable sources:
- Frühwirth, Thom; Michel, Laurent; Schulte, Christian (2006), "Constraints in Procedural and Concurrent Languages", in Rossi, Francesca; van Beek, Peter; Walsh, Toby (eds.), Handbook of Constraint Programming (PDF), Foundations of Artificial Intelligence, Elsevier, pp. 453–486, ISBN 978-0-444-52726-4
- Discusses how the CC, Oz and AKL languages can be used for constraint programming.
- Wooldridge, Michael J.; Jennings, Nicholas R. (1995), "Agent Theories, Architectures, and Languages: A Survey" (PDF), Intelligent Agents, Springer
- Only discussed in a single paragraph, but as this is a survey article nothing else got much more than that, either. Cited 1495 times per google scholar.
- Smolka, Gert, The Oz Programming Model (PDF), Lecture Notes in Computer Science, vol. 1000, Springer, pp. 324–343
- This is a half-step away from WP:PRIMARY as it's LNCS, and it's not independent, but it has been cited 616 times per google scholar. Given this combined with the two citations above, I think there's a good-but-not-great case for notability. I will admit, though, that notability might be easier to demonstrate if the article was moved to Oz (programming model and language).

- Keep [1] [2] In particular the seminal Programming with Constraints: An Introduction by Marriott and Stuckey and the Handbook of Constraint Programming by Rossi et al. —Ruud 15:39, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
- Nomination withdrawn. Thank you both for your efforts. I agree these are sufficient sources. Kind regards. Msnicki (talk) 16:08, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
