"Improvements"
[edit]Most of the sources are written by the developers. TEDickey (talk) 00:40, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
A number of them, yes. Referencing version https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Neovim&oldid=704340572 , though - refs #2 (vimcasts), #3 (bountysource, started by developer so I'd concede this if you disagree), #4 (floobits), #8 (Geoff) are not neovim developers. Are the alternative frontend developers, otherwise unassociated with neovim, considered developers? (Refs #5, #6).
What kind of coverage would you consider sufficiently notable here? I've looked through https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability but don't see many hard and fast rules.
Thanks for your time! 71.185.85.170 (talk) 00:48, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
- Independent reviews by well-known, knowledgeable individuals, of course. Start with the guidelines for reliable sources, third-party sources, and notability TEDickey (talk) 00:51, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
- Based on my reading of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Identifying_reliable_sources#Definition_of_published then, something like https://floobits.com/help/plugins/nvim is probably on the cusp of counting (unrelated commercial enterprise that happens to publish information about a product integration), but something like http://vimcasts.org/blog/2014/03/support-neovim/ probably doesn't (looks indistinguishable from a self-published source; vimcasts is a commercial business but I'm not exactly convinced that the blog is all that official, even if I like vimcasts). If that's about right, I do not know any reliable published sources pertaining to neovim that are viable for building a page around. 71.185.85.170 (talk) 01:26, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
