This article is not notable. No references are included and a WP:BEFORE search shows only downloads and unrelated items (not notable for a Wikipedia article). -KAP03(^{Talk • Contributions • Email}) 20:11, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It's been up about an hour before being marked for deletion. I assume this is a robot marking for deletion. It's a work in progress. Chill out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Samiam95124 (talk • contribs) 21:48, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I read through the notability article. Pascal-p2 is a piece of software written in 1972 by Niklaus Wirth and his university group. It was the basis for many Pascal compilers, including many that have pages here in Wikipedia (a search here will show that). I created it as a SourceForge project because I wanted it archived as a software source that is important to the history of computing. It is referenced here in Wikipedia many times, and I thought it deserved a page on it's history and implementation, instead of just appearing as a series of links that go elsewhere.

Your choice. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Samiam95124 (talk • contribs) 03:05, 7 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The reference section of the article does not conform to standards. The links are simply redirects to one website. Lack of validation. Lack of quality. Ventric (talk) 00:16, 7 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Pascal (programming language) (section: Implementations; subsection: The Pascal-P system) looks like the best solution if no more RS are found about this particular Pascal implementation. @Samiam95124: aren´t there some books/papers about Pascal-P2 not written by its authors? That would help to keep stand-alone article. Pavlor (talk) 09:30, 7 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Pascal (programming language). Still not that non-notable. D4iNa4 (talk) 19:09, 26 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
