Re: Notability

It's used in TextMate, which won Apple Design Awards 2006 Best Developer Tool. Also used in Ruby and PHP, which has numerous books written about it. —Tokek 12:22, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

These establish notability for TextMate, Ruby and PHP, but not for Oniguruma. However, I have been able to find independent reliable sources that discuss the topic in-depth, such as this. It could potentially be added to the article. -Verdatum (talk) 19:57, 29 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ghost car?

I don't speak Japanese nor could I find a source, but it seems to mean "oni car". Is it an allusion to the possessed car in Venture Bros?--88.73.60.212 (talk) 14:51, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In Chinese, it's another name for the Nine-headed Bird, as noted on the page on Chinese Wikipedia. —alxndr (t) 20:43, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

The comment in the header seems to assert that because some related program was notable, then this was as well. The sources given don't demonstrate that it satisfies either WP:GNG or WP:NSOFTWARE, and notability is not inherited. The earlier comments on this page agree with that.
