Web2project

Hi. You worked on this page recently, and someone else tagged it for speedy deletion. I believe it met the criteria as "spam", technically, since it had a promotional tone ("there's no reason for you not to try it!" or similar), and it didn't mention any reliable sources that backed up the idea that the software is notable. If you'd like a copy of the article to keep in your userspace until it meets the notability criteria, please let me know. - Dan Dank55 (push to talk) 21:21, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Dan, thanks for the note. I considered cleaning up and expanding upon the web2project page but - as I am a core contributor - I didn't want to do more than add the basic facts. I have worked hard to stay away from the "unbalanced tone" line and didn't want to compromise what others had stated so far. Since I am a contributor to web2project, what strategy would you suggest for getting the page included without breaking any rules? Thanks --Caseydk (talk) 21:54, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

A bigger problem than the conflict of interest problem (which can be solved if you're collaborating with others who are uninvolved) is the notability problem. We don't in general have articles on software that hasn't been released yet, because that generally means no one has written (intelligently) about it yet. When will it be released? - Dan Dank55 (push to talk) 22:32, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

Good point and that sounds like a reasonable criteria: no vaporware. We're working to roll a Release Candidate shortly, so maybe I'll try again then and just work on the draft until then.. Thanks!--Caseydk (talk) 02:27, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
