February 14, 2011 at 13:46"Extra" programming languages are removed from Wikipedia
Wikipedia launched a real battle between a group of users who are trying to remove the "extra" programming languages, and those who return them back. Over the past 24 hours, articles about Nemerle and Alice ML have already been deleted , as well as placed on a list to delete articles about Factor, Joy, Ioke, Pure, etc. All sympathizers are asked to go to Wikipedia and indicate evidence of the significance of these topics in order to preserve them.
From the history of edits it is easy to see which of the Wikipedia editors submitted applications to delete articles. For example, one of these activists Christopher Monsanto (Christopher Monsanto, photo ) just updated his profileon Wikipedia, which explains the reasons for its behavior. He believes that these materials do not meet the Wikipedia criteria on the importance of articles, but, despite this, he promises not to delete anything else.
Dear internet,
You guys win. I will stop nominating pages for deletion.
According to proponents of article deletion, the lists of programming languages are getting too long and they include dozens of tiny home-made languages that have no meaning and are not known to almost anyone except their authors.
It is interesting that Christopher Monsanto has never added practically no new content to all time, and all his activity on the siteIt comes down to editing and deleting "extra" materials. Of course, such people also benefit and act solely from good intentions.
