Talk:MonoUML

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As follows from

 http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Monouml

the files of the software have been downloaded at least 3000 times. Surely that does not tell the number of users of the software. The software may currently be non-notable. However, chances are that it is going to become notable, given it is the only free software for UML on Mono platform. Instead of deleting this page, would not it be better just to start it with a warning that the software is probably not notable? What harm does it make to run the risk of entering non-notable software articles into Wikipedia? I do not see any kinds of costs associated. --155.56.68.221 17:46, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the mark of the article that indicated the article should be deleted, based on the consideration stated in the previous paragraph. I am still confused as to why some wikipedians choose this pure-wanna-be approach to creating articles. In my view, creating quality articles, extending them, and improving them is more useful than looking around for what can be deleted. --155.56.68.221 17:53, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There was a recent delete discussion about articles like this one here. Some wikipedians are against articles like this one here. It is difficult to keep them. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/WinA&D, which has been deleted. I wrote to keep it, because it is a well known UML product. For some reasons, those counting beans by doing google searches had other opinions. There are companies, that do not spam the internet with their products. They are then treated like this. The number of google hits is not such a stringent criteria. Google can be easily fooled. But well, my concerns didn't make it through. --Ligulem 18:02, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
