[edit] VbPortal
Non notable vBulletin addon. No references are cited at all and the article is primarily written by the addon developers themselves. Save-Me-Oprah(talk) 18:03, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete or, if it can be done with reliable sources, merge with vBulletin. Otherwise, a basic synopsis of VbPortal could be added to vBulletin, and a redirect created. PeterSymonds | talk 21:18, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
12 months after the article is published you both just happen by and want it deleted. Why delete this article in particular and are all the other articles on every single wiki page that does not have references cited also going to be recommended by you for deletion ? It can not be merged with vBulletin's page because it would cause a riot on that page (read over the vBulletin discussion page and you will understand). The article was not primarily written by the add-on developers themselves, it was a combination of contributions by members then drafted and improved by same members. Its just coincidence I am the only one developer who has or is interested in having a wiki account and posted the article. No where does it say who can or can not submit an article to wiki and no where does it say that an article like this can not be submitted. What references do you want cited ?

- By having a close affiliation to the subject of the article and being the primary contributor to the article (You've made 16 out of the total of 30 edits), you have a conflict of interest. Please see WP:CONFLICT for more info. Also, the article does not pass the criteria for notability, outlined in WP:WEB. I suggest you read up in those two essays.

Since you have such a good grasp on Wiki, you decide as I have no further interest here. I try not to associate with elitest nerds or bottom feeders, instead I try to build and give back to others. Its too easy destroying other peoples work, anyone can do that and doesn't take much effort. The people I know and associate with work together. IF you don't have something good to say about yourself, look for something bad to say about something else, huh ! So long and thanks for all the fish. Scotsmist (talk) 12:33, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
