I am unable to find any references that would help this article obtain WP:GNG status. And Adoil Descended (talk) 01:43, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, not notable font, yes it's free, but that's it. The article's author contribution, this article only. MaNeMeBasat (talk) 08:11, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Substantial notability should not be an issue in this case, because there is no set declarative for typeset popularity. Besides, this font has been downloaded 4,400+ times over the past year. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.146.144.86 (talk) 00:14, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Mark Arsten (talk) 13:36, 7 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fonts are not inherently notable; there are simply too many of them. Clearly some are notable because they are, say, bundled with Windows or widely used in publishing. I do not think that WP:GNG is entirely helpful for things like fonts but I would want evidence of widespread adoption and/or recommendations for its use in particular applications and so forth to establish notability. Otherwise, it is just another uncial face. --AJHingston (talk) 21:14, 7 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
