[edit] Comparison of content management systems

(1) It doesn't really provide much in the way of useful information. (2) Short of duplicating the information on cmsmatrix et al., it is mostly original research. Most of the facts/features are only mentionened here, not on the detail pages. There are no sources to back those claims. (3) It's not the kind of thing you'd expect to find in an encyclopaedia. (4) The article is a spam magnet; I've watched this page a couple of days and seen a pattern: Commercial CMSs are entered here -- with all features claimed to be supported and linked to detail articles which read like {{advert}}s. --Silvestre Zabala 18:30, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. The information here that's encyclopedic is available in List of content management systems, and the remainder is feature comparison which is impossible to define properly (i.e., which features should be compared, and how should those features be defined).

• Delete per Ubernostrum. It also appears to be incomplete since there's no reference to Interwoven's solutions. Essexmutant 12:06, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

• Merge with List of content management systems, original research move to wikisource. --Moravek 19:22, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
• DO NOT Delete - This type of resource is very valuable to newbies trying to figure out the complex and baffling CMS landscape of products.
