Online compiler

Contested PROD: neologism ('online' + 'compiler') with no reliable sources, just two to the same product and two blogs. Seems to exist largely to promote the product Compilr, an article created by the same editor as this one. JohnBlackburne^words_deeds 17:23, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

All the articles created by this editor are about software that was created by "Ninja Otter Inc.". These all seem promotional in nature. PTJoshua (talk) 17:26, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Extremely few sources currently exist as the technology is very young (only about a year old); many sources exist on programmer websites, however these sources are generally very small with only a few lines of text and a link to an example of an online compiler. Care has been taken to seek out as many sources as possible however as a young technology only the article on "Who needs an online compiler" could be found.

Delete - as promotion of neologism. References do not meet threshold of reliable 3rd party coverage - 3 blog posts, with 2 of the 3 being by the same author, Nich Budden, who may well be the Nbudden who commented above. Dialectric (talk) 03:47, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete this is not an online compiler. An online compiler is a compiler that is user interactive and provides feedback while compiling. Compare it to an offline compiler, which compiles without user interaction or feedback, except after the entire course of the program has run, and it ends, such as those used in batch sessions. 65.94.47.63 (talk) 06:53, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
