Zwiki

[edit]

Hi Erica,

I noted that you recently deleted the page on Zwiki. We feel that Zwiki deserves a page on Wikipedia because of its widespread usage. We'll try to rephrase the first line to get rid of any advertising speak.

Regards, Frank (on behalf of the Zwiki developers)

Ok, I'll restore it. Please add a notability assertion, that is, why should this have an encyclopedia article? Thanks, Fang Aili talk 14:00, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Seeing that you visited and renamed the article, I assume you noticed we added content and references. We hope this somehow settles the notion of notability :-) if it doesn't (and I misunderstood the use of the word "assertion" then), please let us know. In any case the deletion of the article helped us unslack and make the article more usefull after all, so thank you! Betabug 14:37, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Not really, actually. Do you have any stats on how many websites use Zwiki, or how many people use it, something like that? How about some reviews from independent sources? According to Wikipedia:Notability (web), "A notable topic has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works that are reliable and independent of the subject." I am not trying to be hard on you, and I have no interest in deleting the article again. I'm just trying to help you create a better article. Let me know if I can be of any assistance. Cheers, Fang Aili talk 14:42, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Notice

The article Zwiki has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline requirement nor the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (software) supplementary essay. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus. Thank you.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
