- I'm sorry, I don't entirely understand why deletion is a more reasonable reaction that maintaining the request for additional secondary sources. mkv files have become an overwhelmingly popular portable video container, I worry that if the article is deleted it will just come back in a sorrier state later as its vague continual cultural relevancy encourages contributors who notice its MIA status and restore it.

- As I wrote in the nomination, the article was tagged since 2021. 3 years is plenty of time, isn't it? If you vouch to work on the article, it can me moved to the draft space (WP:DRAFTIFY), where you can continue to work on it until it becomes acceptable. - Altenmann >talk 20:33, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
- Keep I think there is sufficient coverage to meet WP:GNG based on books listed here: https://www.google.com/search?tbm=bks&q=Matroska. There is sufficient significant coverage in independent reliable sources to meet the guideline. The article relies too heavily on sources affiliated with the subject, but that can be fixed later and does not affect the subject's notability. Streamline8988 (talk) 06:38, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
- Keep I agree, while the article can and should be improved, and independent sources added, there is no reason to just delete it. There are relevant sources spanning different domains (https://www.lavanguardia.com/andro4all/tecnologia/como-reproducir-archivos-mkv-en-android-todas-las-formas).

- Keep Significant independent coverage in multiple books, scholary sources, and mainstream publications. DigitalIceAge (talk) 20:24, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- Keep (and even expand, maybe?). When I was learning about downloading Torrents (ie movies) using BitTorrent, nearly all the movie files are saved in the .MKV format. I absolutely found Wikipedia useful in figuring it all out (I'm no multimedia expert!). Without somewhere to look up info about .MKV files I'd have been lost...(!)
