[edit] General Notability Guideline

I saw the notice up on the main part of this article so I figured I'd leave a comment. I'd say FIGlet definitely deserves an article on wikipedia. Doing a Google search on that word alone brings up over 100,000 results. It's probably the most notable ASCII Art app there is (even more so than JavE, which also has its own article) - Patorjk (talk) 19:48, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Also note that JavE's website includes a section devoted to FIGlet fonts, although I think banner is still probably the most notable in class. --Belg4mit (talk) 03:15, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

I tried to add a reference, but it didn't work! I used the same format as the references on the Colin Kirton article (which I had also contributed to in the past). I even tested it by copying a reference from there to see. The footnote number appears, but no footnotes appear in the references section. Can someone more well-versed in Wikipedia help? Thanks. ianchai (talk) 08:56, 120 April 2008 (MST)

FIGlet is more notable than much of the cruft clogging up Wikipedia's database User:Mikeblas. Of course, you could have tried to verify that yourself before flagging the article. Consider, for instance, the various reimplementations of FIGlet, or web services available (some of which might be added in the external links). --Belg4mit (talk) 03:15, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

Figlet → FIGlet – According to the FIGfont Version 2 FIGfont and FIGdriver Standard the term FIGlet shall be written with capitalized "FIG".

FIGlet is indeed "officially" written this way. Ianchai (talk) 00:43, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
