[edit] Var'aq

Var'aq (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Fairly nonnotable prog language. Was prodded in June. Prod removed without addressing the concern. "Notability" tag ignored as well. Of 1,300+ google hits (about 300 unique) I failed to find reliable third-party sources. The language itself is fairly nonoriginal. Claiming to be a Klingon programming language, it lacks the personality and iron humor of Klingon language (although the translation of Hello World does show that the author is aware of it). `'Míkka 23:44, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

• Weak Delete per lack of reliable sources Corpx 05:16, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
• Comment I tried to track down some non-blog sources. [1] (SlashDot), [2] (trektoday.com). It got a mention as a possible undergraduate project at Oxford Brookes [3], and has an entry in ESR's Retrocomputing Museum [4]. (Also a snippet in NTK.net's weekly digest[5], but I'd tend to discount that one myself) --_{tiny plastic} Grey Knight ⊖ 12:22, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
