Microsoft Pascal

Looks like a sample program. Not likely to be encylopedic. Vegaswikian 19:33, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• Judging by what I know about Pascal, this program is extremely simple, likely to come up as the first-week homework of a Pascal student. — JIP | Talk 20:03, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • It's full of errors too. No Pascal compiler will accept that without at least half a dozen errors. Strong delete. — JIP | Talk 20:06, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • I change my vote to keep after the rewrite by Uncle G. — JIP | Talk 15:34, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• writeln (' delete '); Nothing worth keeping. Chris talk back 22:12, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• mv delete, Microsoft Pascal         Keep the re-write. # Carnildo 23:08, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. - Marcika 23:15, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, non-encyclopedic, bad-formated, full of errors and vanity. Sanmartin 23:18, 2005 Apr 12 (according to history Uncle G 01:24, 2005 Apr 13 (UTC))
• It's not actually about Microsoft Pascal, the software package (mentioned in Turbo Pascal). It's just a Pascal program. CStringUnlink('Microsoft Pascal') unless rewritten to be about the software package. Weak Keep. Uncle G 01:24, 2005 Apr 13 (UTC)
• Delete, although the title is worth a stub if someone knows enough about it. Gazpacho 01:54, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Rewritten article. Uncle G 14:54, 2005 Apr 13 (UTC)
• Keep UncleG's rewrite. --TenOfAllTrades | Talk 17:18, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. Kappa 08:06, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• keep is this serious? Yuckfoo 01:41, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • The version that was submitted for VfD was someone's posting of a buggy program written in Pascal. --Carnildo 02:10, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, rewritten article. Megan1967 08:57, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
