Google Code Jam (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log · Stats)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Subject of numerous minor mentions, but fails to gain any significant coverage in reliable sources, thus failing WP:NEVENT. A very few sources like [1] are semi-reliable, slightly promotional or don't give any general view on the Google Code Jam, instead barely focusing on a single edition of the competition or conducting an interview with one or more participants. WP:NORG can apply here with regards to the content of the sources that are promotional. There is no valid merge target, since it's organized by Google, and the Code Jam probably deserves no more than a sentence on the Google article. wumbolo ^^^ 12:39, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

• Keep: sufficient Google Books results to justify having a stand-alone article, for example: The Innovator's DNA: Mastering the Five Skills of Disruptive Innovators by Jeff Dyer, Hal Gregersen, Clayton M. and Google by Virginia A. Scott. A major international competition; meets WP:NEVENT. K.e.coffman (talk) 20:25, 14 July 2018 (UTC)
• Keep The claim of notability is backed by the required reliable sources. Alansohn (talk) 14:38, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

  @Alansohn: can you please elaborate which sources back the notability claim? wumbolo ^^^ 13:03, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
