[edit] re Cutenews

OK, I've restored the article per your request. I don't, however, think it meets our notability standards for WP:SOFTWARE. I'm sending it to WP:AFD where the community may discuss it for a week and decide whether it should be deleted or not. You are welcome to participate in this discussion. I don't know about Wordpress or Joomla, but I'll take a look at them, perhaps they also do not meet our standards and may be deleted. Herostratus 16:56, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

• If it makes you feel any better, I have also nominated WordPress for deletion. Joomla, however, appears to have significant third-party mention, therefore does not fail WP:SOFTWARE. Also -- do not be discouraged if Cutenews is deleted. Many of us have had articles deleted, especially in the early going. Looking forward to your future contributions, cheers, Herostratus 17:22, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
