While it might be used quite a bit, Travis CI doesn't meet any of the criteria for inclusion in WP:NSOFT. Furthermore, most of its references are primary sources. The ones that are not are non-reliable sources or blogs. In addition, I didn't see any other reliable sources from searching around in Google. It is also an incredibly short article. If consensus is not to delete, this article needs some serious work on content and references. Vacation9 02:58, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It is included on the Python Guide [1] arguably one of the main Python tutoring resources. Sebastian 17:09, 23 June 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tian2992 (talk • contribs)
- From WP:NSOFT:
Vacation9 14:57, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]"Coverage of the software in passing, such as being part of a how-to document, do not normally constitute significant coverage but should be evaluated. Inclusion of software in lists of similar software generally does not count as deep coverage."

- Comment yes, it seems to be in use quite a bit: [2], [3], [4], [5]. Also Sebastian's argument is valid. In my opinion, we could keep or merge and redirect the information to Continuous_integration#Software, it would be better service to our readers than deletion. It is an incredibly short article ... well, here is how our article on Banana started. See WP:NEGLECT. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 07:54, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep WP:NSOFT is an essay, not a guideline or policy. I have added some of the links provided by Vejvančický as sources - thanks. In what way are the InfoQ and LA Times Data Desk sources not reliable? Also, in relation to importance, other than what is stated in the article itself:
- Brian Ford - from [6]--greenrd (talk) 06:16, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]"What Github did for sharing code, Travis CI will do for testing code. The value of this service cannot be overstated. Travis CI is a paradigm shift. The world will be a better place when every open-source developer is running their test suite on Travis CI."
