The result was Delete. There don't seem to be any third-party sources commenting on the significance of this keyboard layout. The only two references that are not personal sites or promoter sites do not mention this layout at all. EdJohnston (talk) 04:08, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] GKOS keyboard

GKOS keyboard (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Keyboard layout for mobile devices that doesn't appear to be notable. The sources cited all appear to be personal websites and the like and don't conform to WP:RS. Vquex (talk) 18:56, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

• delete The paragraph on GKOS in Chorded_keyboard might be expanded slightly with some information from here. Stationary (talk) 19:03, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
• Keep or merge as above Perhaps not notable to Vquex. It is a proposed standard, however, and the first external link is to the manufacturer, who is certainly a reliable source about its own product, not a personal site or the like. I don't happen to like using it (with only a few minutes of use, how could I?), but that is not a reason to delete the article. htom (talk) 20:33, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

The manufacturer's site is a primary source, Wikipedia requires secondary (unaffiliated) sources to establish notability. Vquex (talk) 22:57, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

I always forget that correctness is less important than secondary sources. Changed to keep or merge. htom (talk) 15:48, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
