If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Zeuscart, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. bonadea contributions talk 07:59, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Karthick.aj (talk) 10:05, 25 January 2014 (UTC)Zeuscart is the open source project, so it is good to have a Wikipedia page. See more references. Karthick.aj (talk) 10:05, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[1] Karthick.aj (talk) 10:05, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[2][reply]

Zeuscart doesn't appear to meet Wikipedia's guideline for notability, I'm sorry about that. It was also previously nominated for deletion, and currently nothing has changed that warrants an article. Thank you for understanding. Raykyogrou0 (Talk) 10:30, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with that assessment. Topics must have been the subject of significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject to be considered notable. A hosting service such as GitHub is not a reliable source, the project website clearly is not independent. Huon (talk) 10:46, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

182.72.224.10 (talk) 10:56, 25 January 2014 (UTC) I am new to Wikipedia, so the article may not be looking good., I am learning on and will improve this. See similar products like zencart, magento are been in Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zen_Cart http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magento[reply]

Zen Cart seems to be the subject of multiple published, independent "how-to" books; those could be used as sources for an article. Magento is more dubious, but at least the company's sale to eBay generated a little third-party coverage; maybe there's more. In general, while other problematic articles may exist (and both of those you pointed out were marked as "reads like an advertisement", that's no reason to create more - each submission must stand on its own merits.
If enough coverage of ZeusCart exists to warrant an article, I'd suggest you use the article wizard to write a draft. There's no fixed number, but usually three to five reliable, independent sources are considered a minimal requirement for an article, where quality of sources is at least as important as quantity.
