Talk:IT Baseline Protection Catalogs

Notability
This article is in danger of deletion due to the fact that it is primarily single-sourced, primary sourced, and so very narrow. It really belongs on another page about computer security policy in a section that lists policies in place for various governments (this one for Germany). However, that article does not currently exist in a good way (search for information security or computer security policy and you will find a handful of articles that should be merged somehow). If anyone can improve this article in the mean time, that would be great. I will slowly work on putting the information together into a nice, complete article on the broader topic. Germany's InfoSec policy is not worthy, in and of itself, to have an encyclopedia article! –Paul M. Nguyen (chat&#124;blame) 01:01, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

I copyedited the article anyway; I still think the general concept should be included in a broader article on Information Security Policy. It involves human resources and management, the systems infrastructure (both hardware and software), and has a fairly solid, business-aware model for an agile security management program. However, this is not compliant with WP:NOTABLE, a frequently-cited reason for deletion of an article. I believe the policy could be summarized in two paragraphs and laid to rest in a better article. Drop your comments here or contact me directly (your post will most likely be transferred here for the sake of the integrity of the discussion). –Paul M.

Redirect
In light of the ongoing notability issues, the discussion already present on this talk page, and lack of independent coverage cited in the article, I've created a brief section on the topic within Federal Office for Information Security and have redirected this article there.
