This article was written by User:Lkcl who is listed as a/the lead developer. That's fine so long as the article remains compliant with policies such as WP:NPOV, WP:V (it seems WP:N was already established in the AfD). It sounds a little bit like an advert currently so can someone please tidy the article somewhat. -- samj in out 11:47, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
hi wikipedians, if you want to delete Pyjamas_(software), you must also apply the same strict rules to Google_Web_Toolkit and delete that page as well. Pyjamas_(software) was copied, pretty much verbatim, from Google_Web_Toolkit's wikipedia page. the project, which is a port of GWT, is not as well-known as GWT, but that doesn't make it any "less important". so - leave the page alone: there's absolutely no need to go destroying people's efforts to document the existence of a project. lkcl.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.16.107.175 ( talk)
I consider Pyjamas a highly valuable software project which fully deserves an entry in the Wikipedia. As regards to notability, I think it's a dubious criterion to judge what deserves to be included, due to its necessarily subjective essence. If there's a way to make it objective, I'd highly appreciate to see the comparison methods being employed. Until then, my word is: please, keep it as it is. Wikipedia has a well earned reputation of being a source where one can find even the more arcane subjects. It would be a shame that people who seeks for information about Pyjamas has to turn to other sources.

While I believe pyjamas has a great deal of potential and will warrant this Wikipedia entry eventually. I'm not sure I disagree with the current notability of the project, While many people are using it for small internal sandbox projects as indicated by the traffic on the mailing list, are there any semi-popular websites/applications/companies relying on pyjamas that we know about? --Terry 99.226.140.164 ( talk) 14:11, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Keep the page alive! We are using Pyjamas at my start-up (Maven Interactive) and believe it to hold great promise. It's a great technology and I know some other developers who are investigating its potential. But using it is something of a competitive advantage, so we're not talking very loudly about it, if at all. While my start-up is still in stealth mode I use a number of technologies that I don't want to broadcast to the world. A couple of times when I was interviewing developers I sent them to Wikipedia to show them one of the technologies I needed them to know. I suppose I can easily reference other sites. But Wikipedia is well-known and easy to reference. MichaelcMurdock ( talk) 18:04, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

I trust this article is no longer controversial. Pyjamas is more widely used now. Pasado ( talk) 06:44, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
Is Pyjamas perfect? In other words, does the translation produce code that perfectly follows the Python specifications?
I am interested in introducing a certain company to Pyjamas, but they absolutely need a perfect implementation of Python to JavaScript, one that will act exactly the same way as desktop Python in every way.
Thanks for your help. -- Carrot Lord ( talk) 07:25, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
The link labeled "Pyjamas: Project Home" under Resources is broken. It appears Google no longer has a Pyjamas page. But I don't know how to edit something implemented as a RefList object. Dshafer ( talk) 20:58, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
Concerning editing and maintaining JavaScript-related articles...
If you are interested in collaborating on JavaScript articles or would like to see where you could help, stop by Wikipedia:WikiProject JavaScript and feel free to add your name to the participants list. Both editors and programmers are welcome.
We've found over 300 JavaScript-related articles so far. If you come across any others, please add them to that list.
The WikiProject is also taking on the organization of the Wikipedia community's user script support pages. If you are interested in helping to organize information on the user scripts (or are curious about what we are up to), let us know!
If you have need for a user script that does not yet exist, or you have a cool idea for a user script or gadget, you can post it at Wikipedia:User scripts/Requests. And if you are a JavaScript programmer, that's a great place to find tasks if you are bored.
If you come across a JavaScript article desperately in need of editor attention, and it's beyond your ability to handle, you can add it to our list of JavaScript-related articles that need attention.
At the top of the talk page of most every JavaScript-related article is a WikiProject JavaScript template where you can record the quality class and importance of the article. Doing so will help the community track the stage of completion and watch the highest priority articles more closely.

I thought it important to point out that someone (associated with the project) has been editing the "history" page to provide a perspective that leaves out several important facts.
The effect that the actions of the project hijackers had was to cut an already extremely low income in HALF, as I lost clients due to their actions. They have absolutely no idea of the harm that they did. I cannot truly begin to describe how damaging their actions were to my situation, which was already precarious, when I was living in a location that was actually extremely dangerous. My health and that of my family was compromised from having to live in sub-standard accommodation: temperatures of SEVEN Centigrade during winter. Water that was not restored for a month due to damage to the pipe from the well.
An example: a flash flood occurred that year, with the water in a normally passive stream rising four METRES in under three hours due to a storm further north of Stranraer (we later learned that it had flooded out the house and the entire field that the house was in, for around a quarter of a mile in every direction). I guessed that I had about 20 minutes to get my 3 year old daughter, my partner and myself out of the house, to safety. In that 20 minutes the water rose to the point where I had to wade through eighteen inches of water, unable to see the path from the house to the bridge, carrying my daughter in my arms, to get to the stone bridge, water roaring underneath it only two feet below the top of the arch at about 30 miles an hour, knowing that there was a waterfall only a hundred metres downstream over a drop of about 5 metres onto large stone boulders. One slip and we would have been swept away and killed.
Yet this was the only place that we could afford to live in at the time. Even just the cost of moving was something that was beyond us.
I got the distinct impression that the hijackers were operating on some sort of mental... "auto-pilot", bereft of common sense, decency, ethical morality and compassion, yet completely self-deluded in their belief that their actions were "just and right". The section marked "history" may therefore be viewed as a desperate attempt by one of the members of the project to justify their absolutely reprehensible actions. I'm not going to touch it. I'm going to leave it to wikipedia moderators to deal with. I will not write again on this subject.
