[edit] Wikisara

Wikisara (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Subject not seem to meet WP:WEB. It was cited as a reference in "a French well-known road magazine", but did that referencing contain non-trivial coverage about Wikisara we could use to write this article? I see no news results. W.marsh 22:51, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete, just this side of a G7 actually. Almost no notability asserted, nor are there any significant Google hits present. Utterly fails WP:WEB. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 23:08, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete, appears to fail WP:WEB.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 03:03, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete - I originally proposed deletion using {{prod}} for basically the same purpose - it's a completely unreferenced copy of the French Wikipedia article that was added the day before. -- Roleplayer (talk) 21:13, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep for the reasons explained in the discussion page. Route Nostalgie is a reference for the history of French roads although it is not available online and Wikisara seems to have no equivalent for French roads.--Logos36 (talk) 08:30, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
    • I am just afraid that no "road expert" can judge about the relevance of Wikisara's article.--Logos36 (talk) 12:29, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - no assertion of notability. Reviewing the talk discussion page, there is apparently a mention of the website in a French magazine, but the actual citation is not provided so it is impossible to check if it's extensive, if it's independent, if it's noteworthy, or if it's just as a footnote. As is, delete, though no prejudice against recreation if the reference is indeed worthwhile. WLU (talk) 14:06, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
    • The article dedicated to Wikisara in Route Nostalgie is quite similar to the one I have written. Of course, it is more detailed and there are pictures... According to a French contributor of Wikipedia, the website has also been mentionned in another car magazine but unfortunately he can't find the reference.--Logos36 (talk) 12:39, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
