Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Sambahsa-mundialect

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sellamat! I am actually the author of the page and, as such, I don't take a stand. From the comments above, I suppose I was misled by the fact that auxlangs with no speaker have an article (ex: Europaio whose friendly creator adviced me to publish my work on the Net; not to mention "fantasy auxlangs" like Wenedyk of our friend Jan). I would just recommend that guidelines for deletion should be redefined, especially about notability. In general, people on the street have only heard about esperanto while "auxlangers" communicate nowadays through the Net (for auxlangs are by nature a matter of international concern) and have thus seen a lot of projects. Concerning articles by third parties, don't forget that the ability to make journalists or scholars pay attention to his/her project is not revealing of the quality of the language itself, as Jan has already said. (I'd like to add that I did not create the language to go on Wikipedia, for I began working on it when Wikipedia did not yet exist :-)) If auxlangs like Slovio don't deserve an article, I don't bother about deletion nor merging of the page. Do what you have to do.
Best regards
