==Notability==
Seems to me it's notable enough to deserve an article. [[User:Geoffrey.landis|Geoffrey.landis]] ([[User talk:Geoffrey.landis|talk]]) 02:45, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

== Does not meet speedy deletion criteria ==

Sorry, but the article does not meet the explicit speedy deletion criteria, in that Speedy Deletion is only for an article which "does not indicate why its subject is important or significant" (per [[Wikipedia:Speedy_deletion]]). This article cites an article about Deletionpedia from [http://www.thestandard.com/news/2008/09/17/deletionpedia-where-wikipedia-goes-die the Standard], which is ''prima facia'' indication of notability, per the [[WP:notability]] standards.

The correct procedure is not speedy deletion; it is deletion discussion.

:Disagree. It's not prima facie at all. It's a short article and barely more than a trivial mention. Should be deleted speedily, and if not I will immediatly take it to AfD. - [[User:Realkyhick|Realkyhick]] <small>([[User talk:Realkyhick|Talk to me]])</small> 02:59, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

::Sorry, shortness is not part of the criteria for notability. Furthermore, you're misreading the criterion slightly. Speedy delete is not for an article which are not notable-- is is for articles which do not indicate '''evidence''' of notability. An article in the Standard is evidence of notability. [[User:Geoffrey.landis|Geoffrey.landis]] ([[User talk:Geoffrey.landis|talk]]) 03:05, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Furthermore, please note the following text on [[Wikipedia:Speedy_deletion]]: "[[Wikipedia:Speedy_deletion]]: '''Contributors sometimes create articles over several edits, so try to avoid deleting a page too soon after its creation if it appears incomplete. '''

The history file shows that he placed the speedy-delete tag on the article within one minute-- let me bold-face that-- '''within one minute''' of the first edit. I don't think this qualifies as "try to avoid deleting a page too soon after its creation if it appears incomplete."

:Perhaps I was a bit hasty proposing this for SD so soon after it was created but I really don't think it merits an article. About the reference I did not see it, I am sorry; I saw the slashdot ref, which is definitely not reliable, but missed that one. - '''[[User:Icewedge|Icewedge]] ([[User talk:Icewedge|talk]])''' 03:20, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

== I've expanded the article a bit ==

And threw in my two cents at the [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Deletionpedia|too-rapidly-called-for afd debate]]. [[Special:Contributions/67.101.5.132|67.101.5.132]] ([[User talk:67.101.5.132|talk]]) 10:18, 18 September 2008 (UTC).
