:The author of the last two was a columnist at the time of publication ([https://web.archive.org/web/20150929171924/https://www.linuxjournal.com/content/libreboot-x60-part-i-setup archive link]). I think for tech, "columnist" has a much lower connotation of opinionated bloviation, and a better mix of fact-to-opinion compared to politics or other subjects. To compare, I'd put other tech columnists like Walt Mossberg or David Pogue in a different league from all the typical silly op-ed writers. So, opinions may differ, but I'd count it towards GNG. <ins>edited 22:33, 17 June 2023 (UTC):</ins> wasn't sure how columnists usually get treated at AfD, so I looked around and found [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/PeopleSmart&diff=prev&oldid=573531823 this smart 2013 DGG comment]: his criteria are the degree of editorial control over the column, and the credibility of the columnist. I'll let others judge the first, but I think we can lean on [[WP:SPE]] to satisfy the second. [[User:DFlhb|DFlhb]] ([[User talk:DFlhb|talk]]) 19:23, 17 June 2023 (UTC)

:[[In vino veritas]] The smell of <s>bullshit</s> errors is strong in this one. Apologies in advance. In honor of {{u|Nemo_bis}} and a couple [[Special:diff/1160555379 |spot]] on [[Special:Diff/1160555410 |edits]], I have consumed too much fine Italian wine. If I understand correctly, the <s>analysis</s> Source assessment shows only a single source supports [[WP:GNG]] for this article. Case closed. One source is not enough. But the analysis is </s>bullshit</s> faulty.

:I'll give one example where the analysis is <s>FUBAR</s> faulty, which makes all the rest suspect: You say this[https://fossforce.com/2017/01/gnu-officially-boots-libreboot/] is "Significant Coverage" of Libreboot. What the source says: "<font color="green">So far, this entire story is summed up by the above headline. Until we know more, that’s all we know.</font>" Significant coverage? NO.

:PS. You're using Coatrack arguments, to justify creating a worse coatrack. LOL -- [[User:Yae4|Yae4]] ([[User talk:Yae4|talk]]) 02:00, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
