[edit] Wikepage
An article about a wiki/blog software that was deleted under Prod but restored per request by the main editor (who also seems to be the sotware creator). 217 unique Google hits, one news hit on Google news, zero on Newsbank. Procedural listing from WP:DRV, so I'll leave it to the community to decide. ~ trialsanderrors 03:22, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete 31 websites link to it, and it has an Alexa ranking of 236,056. Utterly fails WP:WEB. -Elmer Clark 04:20, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
- All the substantive edits to this page appear to have been made by the program's author. I believe that the autobiographical nature of the page works against it. If you or your software are appropriate for an encyclopedia article, it's always good advice to be patient and let someone else write the article. In the meantime, no evidence has been presented that this software meets any of our recommended inclusion standards. Delete. Rossami (talk) 12:49, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

- Delete, clearly does not meet WP:WEB per comments above -- Samir धर्म 15:24, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete As you said, page was created and edited by me. As i see, wikepage is not seemed to be important, and not meets any Wikipedia inclusion standarts, it's logical to be deleted. But if you look up any other software,- for example wiki softwares like Wikepage - scWiki, PukiWiki,CitiWiki ...etc... and maybe other many wikis, and of course many blog softwares, must be deleted. I can list hundreds of web based softwares which can not to be seemed important. Lastly, I want to thank you for your peer review process and chance to talk.

- Comment We have something like 1.3 million articles as of now, and all deletion is done by hand. There are many, many articles that slip through the cracks simply because nobody detects them. If you think those articles describe non-notable software you can help and tag them for deletion. This is not malice against your program, just simply a slow process. ~ trialsanderrors 18:29, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
- Comment IMHO, many people think that Wikipedia is a strong reference base because of its 1.3 million articles. I like to see information about CitiWiki. Because maybe you don't need wiki softwares, but any information about CitiWiki concerns me. If wikepage.org has an Alexa ranking of 236,056 (in top %2 of Alexa list) it means, it has a potential developer and user base. With a strict deletion policy, Wikipedia can not be Wikipedia as many people know and use. It's not a top %2 thing, any information that people search is important. And this can not be foresighted by hand, it's a statistical thing. Thanks. Sblisesivdin(talk) 21:44, 31 August 2006 (GMT+2)
