Tagged for notability since 2010. A mess of low quality references. Fails WP:GNG - UtherSRG (talk) 15:48, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Sources in the Further reading section clearly show notability of the article subject. Pavlor (talk) 04:55, 18 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  @Pavlor Which of all those sources are RS with extensive coverage of the topic? Cinadon36 20:01, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  For this purpose, I would choose:

  Drummond, Richard (July 1999). "WarpUp 4.0". Amiga Format. No. 125. Future Publishing. p. 51. ISSN 0957-4867. (full page review)

  Krenželok, Petr (January 1998). "WarpUp your PowerUp?". Amiga Review (in Czech). No. 33. Atlantida Publishing. pp. 7–11. ISSN 1211-1465. (about the PowerUP vs WarpUP controversy)

  Not in the article: Amiga Furture, May/June 2015, issue 114, Classic Reflections Part 21 Haage & Partner (history of the company behind WarpUP/WarpOS)

  Other sources in the article cover mostly the WarpUP vs PowerUP controversy (Dream, AmigaNews), however, AmigaNews extensively cites press-releases by Haage and Partner or phase5 and I have only excerpts of the Dream article.

  There may be far more sources of this kind in the various local Amiga magazines (I didn't find Italian or German magazines online), because PowerPC/PowerUP/WarpUP was the Big Thing in the world of Amiga back in the late 1990s. Pavlor (talk) 05:28, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
