new term, used by one author in one book. Has not gained traction yet. Gaijin42 (talk) 16:20, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • weak keep It's a well-defined concept that is gaining some traction amongst developers. However WP's dogma against online sources will inevitably lead to deletion here. When Factory Patterns for Dummies is published in a couple of years, future WP editors can come back and see this AfD to see how pointless their inevitable recreation work will be.

Andy Dingley I'm a full time OO developer for many years, and I've not heard of it prior to this article. From what I can see its a term used in one book, by one author, and only usable in one language (javascript). The article currently has NO sources. I did some WP:BEFORE but the word "stamp" was a poor marketing choice, as its fairly difficult to get rid of the noise with such a generic term. But if you are aware of WP:RS using the term, now would be the time to bring them up, otherwise there is no chance of keeping the article. Gaijin42 (talk) 14:33, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
