Looks like someone copy-pasted a white paper. This article is filled with buzzwords and promises, and cites only affiliated sources. Even those that have passed peer review have been cited a handful of times at best. Notability not established. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 10:57, 5 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This is a very large, early, multi-disciplinary e-Science project that needs to be covered.

Added a section on technological results and a number of references.

Weak keep I removed a lot of the promotional language in the introduction and history area. There are few third-party sources, and none the talk about the project qua project. I'm not sure this meets WP:NOTABILITY, but I'm not familiar with the topic. LaMona (talk) 02:43, 10 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I added references (written by authors not affiliated the Target project) on the use of the technology developed by this project to the Euclid Dark Energy missions and to the Muse instrument. This goes some way to correcting the lack of third-party sources. In order to establish notability I added references to some news articles which have appeared in the Netherlands media. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TravellingCelt (talk • contribs) 14:37, 11 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Added a reference to an article (Nature genetics, June 2014) about the Genome of the Netherlands Project, which used the infrastructure of Target to conduct whole-genome sequencing analysis. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.125.6.39 (talk) 15:24, 11 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
