Apparently minor programming language sourced only to blogs and forums. (Possible COI; article creator User:Msfclipper has only edited articles related to the work of Mahmoud Samir Fayed - namely this and PWCT (programming language).) McGeddon (talk) 12:42, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That research paper focuses mainly on a different language and gives Supernova only a single, dismissive paragraph of comparison, although it does call it "the first Arabic natural programming language". Is this what Supernova is best known for? --McGeddon (talk) 14:18, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Supernova is known for more than one reason, (1) the language is a natural programming language and there are few of these languages that are developed for research. (2) the language allow writing text based source code in English keywords, Arabic keywords and English /Arabic keywords in the same program. (3) the language token is a letter and it's not case/line/space sensitive, (4) the language developed using a visual programming language called PWCT and it's the first text based programming language developed using a visual programming language. (5) the language is free open source Msfclipper (talk) 14:26, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
