Does not meet WP:GNG. The fact that a programming language is used does not necessarily make it notable. ubiquity (talk) 15:49, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think NCL is a quite relevant language to atmospheric scientists, and it is actively developed. I noticed that it is installed on the main server of my lab. (I'm an ocean modeller; I don't use NCL.) Hulten (talk) 19:05, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm surely no scientist but the Gbooks results seem quite robust. Also rather than deletion a redirect and merge to National_Center_for_Atmospheric_Research#Tools_and_technologies might also be an option? Shawn in Montreal (talk) 19:38, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that sounds like a good idea. Hulten (talk) 19:47, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- I would support redirect/merge. ubiquity (talk) 19:50, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
