This article is almost completely unsourced. It's faintly promotional in tone (parts of it seem to be advertising for a book) and full of vague corporate buzzword jargon. Two months ago what should have been a routine deletion of a double redirect ended with a dubious non-admin close and instructions to go to AFD, so here we are. Since then I've carefully looked over the sources in the article and available elsewhere, and I don't think this can be salvaged. Had to remove a few purported sources because they were plainly irrelevant to the topic. What's left is a tangentially related "implications" section so vague that I can't tell if the sources in it are relevant, but the rest of the article is both unverifiable and utterly banal.

My own searches for sources elsewhere was difficult due to heaps of false positives but there really doesn't seem to be much out there and none of it backs up any of the content in the article. Reyk _YO! 07:58, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and make an entry at Glossary of blogging if it even deserves that. There are definitely blogs about projects that exist, and perhaps even a category of "project blog" (although even that is dubious). However, there does not seem to be a justification nor claim of notability enough for project blog as a category of blog to deserve its own article. Pinguinn 🐧 12:11, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
