This article fails the general notability guideline. It has no independent, reliable sources. Sunfoo (talk) 17:04, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: This article seems reasonable for overall inclusion. I have quibbles with the text of it (particularly the bit mentioning pricing), but a robotics system targeted at young people that seems to have multiple organizations using its system for competitions involving many hundreds of schools meets any rational definition of notability. The fact that it has come to the notice of NASA and a number of high-level offices of state governments seems to corroborate that. There is no large corpus of scholarly writing on this system, but that's to be expected of a production product. I would definitely keep this, but flag the article for a more objective perspective.--69.204.153.39 (talk) 23:50, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete for now maybe until a better article can be made as I found some links at Books, News, browser and Highbeam but nothing to suggest better sourcing unless someone else can take care of this. SwisterTwister talk 05:28, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - fails WP:GNG, the argument by the ip is not based on guidelines. Sources do not reveal in-depth coverage. Onel5969 TT me 23:57, 17 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
