Contested deletion
[edit]This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because...Wheelmap.org offers informations about wheelchair accessibility of places, worldwide. People with disabilities can better plan their day, and participate in community, social and cultural life (a higher quality of life- I mean, that's very important) --Hyronimus299 (talk) 13:56, 14 September 2014 (UTC)
- The project also has been honored with several awards--Hyronimus299 (talk) 19:31, 14 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Hyronimus299 - This is much better! The point is that it does not matter at all that you as the Wikipedia editor think that a subject is "important" - a topic becomes Notable (not "important" - the difference really does matter here on Wikipedia). It is the fact that independent reliable sources think the subject is sufficiently interesting to actually write about it that determines whether an article should exist. The fact that the website has received awards that have been reported in the press is what makes this topic Notable and thus the article is acceptable.
