Re:Wikipedia's Notability Requirements And The Slash by owyn on Monday February 14, 2011 @04:38AM (#2216108)
Oh wow, I definitely wasn't trying to start some kind of a "nerd purge" meme! I was just trying to say that there are other wikis besides wikipedia on all kinds of nerdy subjects. Where there aren't any delete wars and contributions are encouraged, and everyone can be happy tralalala. I work at that place, we encourage nerdy things! There's also a pretty long tail that nobody really pays much attention to. :) So maybe part of the reason this blew up so big could be the anxiety that if it's not on wikipedia, then it might as well not exist? I don't really think that's true...
