[edit] Bubble programming language

This article was part of the mass AfD of "Esoteric Programming languages" overturned by DRV here. It is being relisted for individual consideration. All these languages will be relisted, at five/day to prevent congestion. This is a procedural nomination, so I abstain. Xoloz 17:05, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - As per the previous AFDs and the surrouding AFDs. - Hahnchen 17:22, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Absence of any references other to a description of the language suggests the language is of no importance whatsoever. The jocular description confirms that the creator intends it to be an amusement or tour-de-force, not a serious programming language. Dpbsmith (talk) 23:12, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
• Weak delete this one seems quite different to the other languages, but it's core premise is not one supportive of additional works. Verifiability is also hard. LinaMishima 01:48, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

• Format List of esoteric programming languages fully with tables like the two first paragraphs ("0-9" and "A") so far, then merge there, then delete. --ZeroOne 14:41, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
  • "merge and delete" is feasible but frowned on, as it is laborious for a closing sysop to do correctly (preserving history as required by the GFDL.) Do you really want merge-and-delete, or just plain old merge-and-redirect? Dpbsmith (talk) 15:10, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
    • Well, merge and redirect is OK for me, too. --ZeroOne 15:35, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per my rationale at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Esoteric programming languages. —Ruud 20:10, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete since it lacks any verifiability, Tewfik^Talk 19:51, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. A link to an article describing this 'language' is here. This sounds more like someone's personal project than an actual language that was actually used. RickReinckens 05:29, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
