  I feel a bit bitten by your decline message. Fortunately I am no newbie. You might consider using less aggressive wording in your declines. 

 Regarding notably. I do believe a file format supported by many database systems is independently notable. Did you base your assessment of notability purely on the references currently in the draft or did you do any research of your own to try and establish notability? Both here and in AfD we're primarily trying to assess notability of the subject. Articles on notable subjects should not be rejected or deleted simply because the authors fail to make a good case for notability. 

 My question about whether you've done any research is not rhetorical. If you have not done the research, I am happy to do it and add some better references to the article. Please respond and let me know. ~
