Contested deletion
This page should not be speedily deleted because (your reason here) --DrKC MD (talk) 02:11, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

I just started writing it, you really need to give someone more than just a few seconds to fix problems with a page eefore you delted, In addition this is a STUB for an important standard in broad use. It is an important aspect of an editor of IDE that needs to be added to the IDE and text editor comparison page, but makes zero sense to add it w/o an article.

Review of speedy deletion criteria
After review of the cited criteria, it is pretty clear that none of them are met, and that tagging this article for speedy deletion is contrary to the stated purpose and procedures of Wikipedia. In particular, this is a widely used standard. It is notable simply because of that. It is also important in providing definition and explaination of content on other pages (e.g. the article on syntax highlighting, the pages which compare text editors, and IDEs, etc.) which is currently absent (particularly since I first noted this when I went to compare text editors to see which had LSP and editorconfig support. Both of these attributes are missing, and while there an article about LSP, there isn't one for Editorconfig.  Since it has been adopted by companeis like Microsoft, Jetbrains, and open source projects like Vim, Emacs, and Eclipse it standads out as a key standard between multiple vendors. Other than wanting to know what this standard feature of many text editors was, I have no interest at all in promoting it (in full disclosure--I have no affiliation or participation in the project and only ran into it as a important aspect reading an article about editor configuration and standardization for software development teams.DrKC MD (talk) 02:21, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
