484:. No notability demonstrated, and I don't think we should have articles about Wikis that haven't received coverage. Nothing against the creator, had he added a couple of references (which should not be hard to find, local newspapers in Argentina have covered Knowledge (XXG) as a whole and the Spanish Knowledge (XXG) in particular, I guess newspaper or reliable sites from Hawaii had done that as well for this wiki) this discussion would be moot. Knowledge (XXG) is somewhat biased in certain aspects (like allowing Wikia links instead of considering them spam just to promote Wikia ranking), but we are talking about articles, not just external links now. -- 1062:
But I have yet to find any class of article that has a similar precedent for delete... every article stands on its own merit... so to nominate the perceived weakest article in a group with the claim that it will be the precedent for a deletionfest is, IMHO, really poor form, and so I am inclined to keep it just to oppose that kind of insidious process manipulation.
733:. Cites no references, I can't find any, and given that any topic related to Knowledge (XXG) attracts lots of editors for obvious reasons this probably means there aren't any references anywhere. Knowledge (XXG) projects are not inherently notable, and if the project was not related to Knowledge (XXG) its article would have been deleted very easily. 48:. There is no inherent notabililty for any Knowledge (XXG) version, like each article and subject is has to be judged on its own merits. Looking at the opinions expressed in this discussion in this light, the consensus seems to be to either delete it, or to redirect it. As redirects are cheap, I close this discussion as redirect. 1036:. That is the whole reason for the AfD process, so Articles can be evaluated on their individual merits or lack thereof. Please, feel free to point out to me where these precedents you speak of are recorded in an uneditable and set in stone form. Do you not find it intresting that ther very first 'Keep' !vote in this AfD Citing 751:(and how else would they find it if not looking) only to see we've deleted it. I would argue for a common sense exemption allowing stubs on Knowledge (XXG) projects. Pretend you are not a Knowledge (XXG) editor and aren't interested in our guidelines. Would you not find it absurd to be unable to find this information 1084:
That's a disgraceful accusation, that I've picked on the weakest example & sought to make a precedent out of it. I stumbled across the Hawaiian Knowledge (XXG) & nominated it. I'm fairly sure there are weaker examples. AGF completely and utterly out of the window. It really sucks to have that
746:
I really think it's a little bit silly not to allow articles on Knowledge (XXG) sister projects. People -- as in readers -- would expect the information to be here, and it's sort of obtuse insistence on notability to apply it in these fairly straightforward cases. Leave it as a stub if need be. No
128:
Were this website not a sister site to en.wikipedia, would it have an article in wikipedia? It has 1216 articles ... not notable. By the looks of the template on the article, there are another thirty or so articles equally not notable to be taken into consideration, so we'd better use this AFD as the
644:
Why? Notability is certainly not inherited in that direction - if I wrote a web page about some notable topic, that web page wouldn't suddenly become notable. Keep in mind that we don't grant special notability to Wikimedia projects - the exact same rules ("external sources", most importantly) apply
1061:
Well, suffice it to say: one AfD, a precedent does not make. But there are certain huge classes of AfD's, say High Schools, for example, where none ever ever ever get deleted, so it would be convenient, sometimes, if the deletionists would just accept the inevitable and just stop nominating them.
835:
What notability does the wiki have besides its (small) article count, though? There doesn't appear to have been any external coverage of the site, which is the primary criterion for coverage of web sites. The precedent that I think the nominator is trying to set is simply that small Knowledge (XXG)
819:
is a false reasoning for deletion. (And as for "so we'd better use this AFD as the precedent," ummm NO! Articles are discussed upon individual merit, that is what AfD is for, thus it allows consensus to change. It would be a horror show if the first 15 years of Wiki-AfD set precedents that the
381:. I was aware of neither when I nominated the H wiki. I still maintain this & other small wikipedia articles should be deleted & certainly think that neither of the two previous debates represents a consensus preventing the discussion of this article. -- 853: 374: 346: 141:
The key question is, how notable should a wikipedia site be before it gets an article on the EN Wiki? Hawaii has 1216 articles. Finnish has 120,000 articles. Cheyenne has 11 articles. Surely there is a cut off. Or is /everything/ wikipedia does notable?
909:
as suggested above. Irregardless of the number of articles it has, there is simply little-to-no - and certainly not sufficient - third party coverage to infer notability. Notability is not inherited simply because it's a Knowledge (XXG) project.
714:, this article contains very little information and has zero sources other than the subject itself. Merely being a Wikimedia project is not an automatic claim to notability, and I can't find any significant independent sources myself. -- 249:. Works in relatively uncommon languages are as notable as their counterparts in English, and the largest (and probably only) online encyclopedia in the Hawaiian language is arguably inherently notable, even without references. -- 450: 529:. Knowledge (XXG) editions shouldn't be considered for articles unless they have received some specific news coverage, or have some other specific notability - this one, along with most of the ones in the lower half of 1044:, that alone should show the invalidity of the concept of precedents on WP. Any concept of a precedents being set by previous AfD's can also be disproven and similar opposing precedents found if we look hard enough. 932: 962:. When it grows up or becomes otherwise more significant (e.g. U.S. President identifies its development as major priority in State of the Union Address), maybe it can have its own page. 378: 747:
