Notability

As a professional web developer, I think Next.js has become notable over the last couple of years.

For example, this live chart of its download rate from npm compares it to its peers -- React (web framework), Angular (web framework), Vue.js, and Gatsby (no Wikipedia page). It is between Angular and Gatsby in popularity and rising.— Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{1}}}#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{1}}}|contribs]])

I just wanted to comment that I find it curious how Nuxt.js is considered “notable” while Next.js **isn’t**. If you check their GitHubs, Next.js has twice as many stars, slightly more commits, and about three times as many contributors. --65.246.71.80 (talk) 13:44, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I believe that both frameworks' articles fail to meet WP:NOTE. There are few reliable sources in both. I'm going to strip off all github links here. Number of starts on GitHub is a reasonable indicator of notability. It may be easily faked by big corps. I think it both should be deleted. I don't mind to adding related information on these to the articles like Comparison of web frameworks though. That's where they belong the most. AXONOV (talk) ⚑ 14:47, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Alexander Davronov: You are welcome to help look for new sources or, if you wish, to send the article back to WP:AfD, but please note that one closed recently (can be seen at the top of this page) and if you do not have any new arguments for its deletion, it will not succeed and would likely be almost immediately closed. Notability does not require a minimum number of sources and WP:NSOFT gets a decent amount of weight in software deletion discussions. As far as I can tell, Next.js passes both and the community seems to agree. Also, I believe Comparison of web frameworks should probably be deleted, as it is both irreparably obsolete and generally not notable; it's like a giant comparison between apples, oranges, and crude oil and I don't think that is more helpful than having articles for the notable titles. What do you mean by stripping off the github links? I believe all the links that point to GitHub are currently appropriate, but that doesn't mean I didn't overlook something. Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions, happy editing! Footlessmouse (talk) 22:34, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
