Deletion of Bristol (software)

Comment: I can see how one would think that Bristol is not notable, if one is unfamiliar with open-source audio software. Attaining clear notability is a long, uphill climb for many such projects. Few will ever get the kind of coverage routinely devoted to products with big marketing budgets. In accordance with , I suggest placing a {{tl|notability}} tag on the article, rather than jumping straight to the "delete" option. Also in accordance with , as an alternative to deletion, we should consider merging Bristol (software) into a (hypothetical) more general article about open-source synth software

Comment: FWIW I have used Bristol in the past (though only sporadically as my Nord Stage keyboard produces far better sounds out of the box, in my opinion). I should point out that I addressed concerns about this article three and a half years ago, and there hasn't been any real progress from that. My concerns about the Bristol project page referring to this article ''as if it were its own official documentation page'' (|Wikipedia is not a web hosting service) haven't really been addressed
