"Wikipedia deleting programming language articles" is a silly a title as "Science is biased" or "Music writes great new song"

Wikipedia does not delete programming articles. One Wikipedia editor is deleting programming language articles.

.NET also a stupid name for a development technology, assuming one wishes to be easily found on search engines.

The same argument could be made for Ruby, Python & Java. Not to mention Apple, Blackberry and Windows.
