[edit] Chlorine Boards
Originally tagged for speedy deletion as non-notable message board software, but software is not covered by A7. This AFD was originally malformed - I've fixed it. Procedural - no opinion. Coredesat 04:40, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete Sources are only its own citings, so there is no assertion of notibility outside of itself. Dosen't meet anything at Wikipedia:Notability (software). --155.144.251.120 05:03, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete nn minor CMS whose wikipage was created solely to advertise it's existence and attract developers. Static Universe 23:05, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
- Keep deletion is not an appropriate solution for a possible POV issue. Wikipedia is not a paper encyclopedia. There is no penalty for erring on the side of inclusion. By deleting everything that fails to meet arbitrary and frequently controversial guidelines we lose a great deal. -- Strangelv 15:39, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

- Keep The article may not be about something very famous but it's a well written article, better than many about CMS systems imho, and wikipedia isn't a popularity contest. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Swizec (talk • contribs) 21:29, 26 January 2007 (UTC).
- WP:ILIKEIT isn't a reason to keep an article. --Coredesat 21:51, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
- Especially since Swivec wrote it, and appears to be the main developer of Chlorine Boards as well, whose home page is on swizec.com. Static Universe talk|edits 22:32, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, this is true, but it hardly matters in discussion about notability imho. Truth is there are several other articles about CMS's linked to in the comparison list that don't show any signs of notability and are not being discussed for deletion. Found at least three; the only thing they have going in their favour (compared to this one) is being older than it. Of course anything I say will come out as whining for my article to be kept, but there's nothing I can do against that. Swizec
