Failed WP:GNG and WP:SIRS. The article is primarily written based on GitHub's readme description and MinIO's documentation page. --WikiLinuz (talk) 16:15, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Citations added. Flurrious (talk) 17:34, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep It seems notable to me, but perhaps I'm too close to the technical niche MinIO targets. The coverage given to it by TechCrunch, Forbes, Blocks & Files, Diamanti, and The Register (all cited in the article -- maybe Flurrious just added those?) seem like significant coverage in some depth to me. I'm going to nab a copy of the article in case you decide to delete it, but I hope you decide to keep it. TTK (talk) 22:41, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

• Delete. Source by source (of the ones not clearly non-independent), the TechCrunch piece is an interview with one of the founders of the company (and therefore not independent), the Forbes article is written by a non-staff 'contributor' and therefore not considered reliable per WP:FORBESCON, the Diamanti piece is essentially just a how-to article that happens to use MinIO (and so not significant coverage), and The Register only mentions MinIO in passing as an example of open-source object storage (and so not significant coverage). The Blocks and Files article looks OK to me, but we need more than one source to meet WP:NCORP. Tollens (talk) 07:29, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Thanks Tollens for the feedback on sources. Added another reference from Computer Weekly. Flurrious (talk) 20:34, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, didn't see that one when I did my search. Looks good to me – since there are two sources appearing to meet WP:SIRS, changing to keep. Tollens (talk) 10:51, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. More than enough coverage to support notability. Owen× ☎ 09:42, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
