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

Currently not a notable product. 99 ghits, mostly blogs and forums. Suggest deletion on grounds of WP:N. Marasmusine (talk) 15:21, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Speedy delete as CSD G11. Also, the creator is an SPA that admits to being the CEO and founder of Simprove, who makes this program (see Talk:Workity). JeremyMcCracken (talk) (contribs) 17:51, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. The author admits that the article was created for advertising/linking and he is not particular interested in the article content. 83.254.215.235 (talk) 09:53, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. I didn't admit that the article was created for advertising/linking. Again, I just created the article to complete the List of collaborative software. As a provider of collaborative software, I believe in the concept of social and mass collaboration. So if the Wikipedia community doesn't share my opinion that Workity needs to be added to this list, I'm fine with that. I've learned a lot about Wikipedia in the last two days and as a newby I have to admit that I should have read the guidelines for contribution first. But I also learned, that it was a big mistake to use my real name. When I created my Wikipedia account, I just thought "Hey everybody can know who made this contributions." According to the comments based on my profession, that was wrong. In conclusion, I think Wikipedia is not yet ready for real social collaboration and just works with anonymous contributions posted by IP addresses. So please please (with sugar on top) somebody delete this article that I can face myself again in the mirror. HolgerRath (talk) 13:29, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
