Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Windows "Fiji"

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It appears that my attempt to create a small informational article on Windows "Fiji" has been thwarted by the idea that it is vandalism to "repost" an article that has been previously deleted. For the record, I searched for it and when I did not see it I wrote it. I did not copy and paste the previous article, since I did not even know it had been created and subsequently deleted. I wrote it myself, trying my best to make sure I did not quote hearsay as fact. I thought the article would help someone who was looking for information on the supposed future OS, by stating that "it has been reported that "Fiji" is a future release etc etc". I also included the box at the top of the article that stated This article or section contains information about scheduled or expected future software. The content may change dramatically as the software release approaches and more information becomes available. There are plenty of other articles that provide the same "purported upcoming release" information on numerous other categories. Some of them don't even cite sources. (see Windows XP "Mönch") What is so different about this one? --Nsbendel 18:01, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
