- Slight Keep, as it is described in O'Reilly PDF hacks, Knoppix hacks, and a few others (but it is admittedly somewhat incidental). What is with the massive AfD and PRODs by Isotope23 on PDF software? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Karnesky (talk • contribs) 22:51, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- The AFD/PRODs were basically because I became aware yesterday of a large number of PDF related articles that contain no evidence of notability and I wasn't able to independently verify them as notable. If the notability criteria can be demonstrably met here, I'd be happy to close this (and any other AFDs where sources meeting WP:N are provided) as a keep.--Isotope23 talk 03:14, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- In addition to the coverage in books, the author of the program has published articles about it in peer-reviewed journals [1]. These articles have been cited by researchers other than the author. --Karnesky 04:01, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep the work is notable, the papers cited, and the product widely used. DGG (talk) 02:44, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: Notable java software [2], 22835 downloads in last year [3] mean it is relatively widespread --Mpx 17:09, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, notability appears to be evident based on the discussion above. Yamaguchi先生 00:08, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
