Declined G4 (not sufficiently identical), although the given sources do not provide much more evidence of notability, and a WP:BEFORE couldn't find anything else except forums and primary sources. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 00:59, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

- Delete. As mentioned by nominator, WP:BEFORE search came up with primary sources and forums. The article itself cites two self-published sources (here and here) which are not reliable. I would say this fails WP:GNG and definitely fails WP:SIGCOV. I also doubt there will be any future coverage considering the project was seemingly discontinued as of 2006.

- Delete obscure hobby OS doesn't appear to have enough coverage in reliable sources. Andre🚐 04:25, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
- I think the original website of the project (wcools.nl) must be reliable, it's managed by the creator himself Swsrqurk (talk) 17:13, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
- Even if it is reliable, it is not independent and so does not build the case for keeping an article, see WP:GNG. - MrOllie (talk) 18:55, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - no indication of sourcing to meet WP:GNG or WP:NSOFTWARE. - MrOllie (talk) 18:55, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: Does not meet WP:GNG, lacks significant coverage in reliable, secondary sources. Just a discontinued hobby project, I would be surprised if there was anything. Schützenpanzer (Talk) 22:39, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per above editors' findings --Lenticel (talk) 01:06, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
