Notability[edit]

After seeing the "Notability" tag on the page, I have established notability by adding reliable, secondary sources:

InfoWorld
ZDNet UK
MSDN Magazine
Lang.NET Symposium 2008

and removed the tag. ChuckEsterbrook (talk) 10:45, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but I restored the notability tag. Whatever sources you added, the article says noty a single word why this language is notable. In particular, does anyone uses it besides its developers? Lorem Ip (talk) 15:48, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Article Name Change[edit]

I myself am not a Wikipedia expert, but is "Cobra (programming language from Cobra Language LLC)" an appropriate article name? I looked at the list of programming languages, and several other languages with the words "programming language" parenthesized have no info about the creator/company name in the article name itself. Besides, it takes up extra space when typing it and seems a bit like a sort of "showoff", I don't know the exact term, like a sort of commercialization. Should it be shortened to just "Cobra (programming language)"? DZGuymed (talk) 23:35, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No. The qualifier is necessary to distinguish it from Cobra (programming language from Squeaky Duck) --Cybercobra (talk) 07:28, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I didn't see that there was second Cobra language. My bad. DZGuymed (talk) 16:02, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
