The article is way too archaic, and most of the content is simply historical and no longer applicable today. Viztor (talk) 22:22, 26 May 2019 (UTC)

• Keep. AfD is not cleanup. Yes, the article has been tagged for updating for eight years, but cleanup does not have a deadline in Wikipedia. The topic is obviously notable and updating is a matter of regular editing. If the nominator can identify the outdated facts, WP:SOFIXIT applies. • Gene93k (talk) 00:14, 27 May 2019 (UTC)
• Keep per Gene93k. Mccapra (talk) 04:52, 27 May 2019 (UTC)
• Keep topic is notable and Wikipedia:Deletion is not cleanup.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:44, 27 May 2019 (UTC)
• A quick question, given the status, is it ok to just delete and rewrite? I was thinking about editing, but I'm quite confused where to start as the entire structure of the article might need to be changed.Viztor (talk) 10:22, 28 May 2019 (UTC)
• Keep - it looks passes- WP:SOFIXIT --MA Javadi (talk) 17:13, 28 May 2019 (UTC)
