I cannot find any refs to support this. If it exists, it appears to be non-notable. PROD to this effect removed without explanation. I42 (talk) 05:27, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: per nomination, no evidence of existence. Goodvac (talk) 06:53, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I wouldn't say that google is the oracle of existing anything. This language is going through hard process of coming out. Soltysh (talk) 07:26, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- But something is needed in reliable sources to establish notability. I42 (talk) 08:35, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Please see WP:NOTCRYSTAL. ErikHaugen (talk) 22:22, 14 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as non-notable. Interestingly, the reference and external link both point to the same page, and the first line on the page invites us to "Read about Sierra on Wikipedia". TFOWRThis flag once was red 12:13, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: I can't find significant coverage for this programming language. Joe Chill (talk) 23:36, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Interesting what external site are you talking about, I'm looking at either of them and can't find link to wikipedia. Soltysh (talk) 18:31, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I was talking about www.lightningstormsoftware.com. It's gone now, though. Google's cache is from 4 days prior, and has no links, so I guess we can at least deduce that their website is being actively developed ;-) TFOWRThis flag once was red 18:36, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Which is the other website, by the way? I've only seen the one I linked to above. TFOWRThis flag once was red 18:37, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - any programming language even remotely notable would have an entry in http://99-bottles-of-beer.net. This one does not. PleaseStand (talk) 01:08, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Does not appear to be notable. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1348474 doesn't count, and I can't find anything else about this. ErikHaugen (talk) 22:22, 14 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
