Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/OmenServe

The result was NO CONSENSUS TO DELETE. Actually, there were no delete votes. Basically, there wasn't a quorum. But the four editors who did respond all wanted the keep the informationm, the only question was whether thru Keep or Merge. So I chose the least destructive, Keep. But since there was no quorum, I called it a No Consensus. I could have relisted the article, but I didn't think this was necessary as no one (except the nominator) wanted to delete the information.

[edit] OmenServe

I don't think filesharing scripts deserve their own articles. Sysreset, Polaris, etc. don't have articles. If anything, this should be merged into Internet Relay Chat or MIRC script.

  • Merge into one of those. If it's used by 90% of listservers, then it's notable enough for a merge. (|-- UlTiMuS ( U • T • C | M • E ) 21:22, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
    • I kind of doubt that statistic but of course there is no reliable source for anything :/ Ashibaka tock 21:27, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
      • As do I, but alas, WP:AGF. (|-- UlTiMuS ( U • T • C | M • E ) 21:30, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
    • Keep. I see no need to merge the article with IRC or mIRC scripts - both are already overly cluttered. Also, it meets #2 in proposed Wikipedia:Notability (software). OmenServe has spawned various clones ([1], [2], [3]) and translations ([4]). DLX 11:06, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
    • Keep. As an mIRC user, I find Omenserve to be one of the best serving scripts around. I think the article is necessary and needed, and will, when completed, help newbies and general file sharing users to find and use one of the better scripts available for mIRC.
  • Merge, it will help the average person find the article. And if the article grows then it can be seperated, I highly doubt it will become that big though. BadCRC 19:34, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
