No it's an indication that notoriety in Discord servers isn't a basis for relevance in an encyclopedia. Which is a good choice. A streamer mentioned a language? Wikipedia isn't Twitter.

As a reader thank god not everything that has grabbed the attention of social media gets an article.

Why wouldn't you want to have an article about a programming language that is currently used in production by someone? Are there any downsides to this?

I'm talking about a universe of developing systems programming languages, not "the attention of social media" -- that's a silly shallow bad faith reduction. And I see that elsewhere you have written "a archive for whatever trends on social media, which seems to be the articles criterion for the relevance of Odin" -- it doesn't seem that way to anyone who is remotely intellectually honest ... clearly it is ideology about the scope of Wikipedia articles that is work here totally independently of any knowledge of or details about Odin.

There is also virtually no attention in these comments to the content of TFA, e.g.,

> the entire point of this article is to counter the social media persona where dunking by performative disinterest and uncuriosity are a virtue and rewarded by engagement and short-term reward structures.

Anyway, the Wikipedia article was deleted -- you won. People are still entitled to think that it was a mistake and to say why.
