Speedy deletion nomination of Annotate.net

Hello Balalogic,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Annotate.net for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Benboy00 (talk) 17:52, 3 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Annotate.net Discussion

Copied from soon to be deleted talk page: This page should not be speedily deleted because... I beg to differ with your decision to delete this article. I feel that the page is a worthwhile addition to Wikipedia, as in my opinion it is a unique one-of-a-kind application that acts as a software receiver for Google Chromecast Mirroring Streams and Airplay Mirroring. Both these protocols are closed source, so this is one of the few applications to have implemented the protocol from scratch. The application also serves as a very useful tool for classroom/meeting collaboration and for annotating items on a screen. I have found it extremely helpful and think that the public would at large, benefit from a page that describes this application. I understand that the application is relatively new, but so are numerous others that are on pages that have not been deleted. I urge you to reconsider your decision. Balalogic

First of all, thank you for your contributions. The biggest issue with your page was lack of apparent notability. For an article to be suitable for wikipedia, the subject must be notable, as defined in WP:NOTABLE. The best way to show notability is with 3rd party sources. If I recall correctly (and this may be incorrect, but I do not have a copy of the page), The only sources for this article were pr releases, which are obviously useless for showing notability, and some web articles from unreliable sources. If you can find better sources, then this article may well be suitable for wikipedia. You may be able to get a copy of the depeted page by asking at Wikipedia:Requests_for_undeletion. Ask them to userify or email your page to you. A good route to go through would be Wikipedia:Articles for creation, where your page will be reviewed before it is published, and reviewers will suggest changes. This will mean that your page does not get deleted (except under certain rare circumstances) before you get to implement the changes. I hope this has been helpful, and I would be glad to answer any questions you have. Thanks, Benboy00 (talk) 11:17, 4 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Annotate.net (January 17)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by AngusWOOF were:

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Not enough secondary sources to show notability. Sources are mainly press releases.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Annotate.net and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion.
