Talk:PHP Object Generator

Restoring this page
PHP Object Generator (POG) has been gaining popularity in the past few years. Google search returns hundreds of direct relevant pages. I am surprised that Wikipedia does not have its own page talking about it. As a web application developer for 12+ years, I personally do not find POG is less notable than other similar ORM like pdoMap or even CakePHP. I suggest to restore its own page instead of redirecting it to a list that not relevant to it. -- ppa (talk) 17:29, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi there, I got to this page from a link from another page in wikipedia "object-relational mapping" and would vote for this page to stay... The page is brief but factual and to-the-point. A quick googling of "Php object generator" clearly shows that POG is "notable" and "verifiable". I've added a few references to the "history" portion of the article as proof..

In any case, this page is similar: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CakePHP and deals with the same subject and is deemed ok. I found the cakephp link from the same page "object-relational mapping"... if you're wondering.

Expert review
The result was: The topic is not notable; convincing secondary sources have not been found. Will redirect the article to List of object-relational mapping software. --B. Wolterding 17:58, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

''This review has been announced on the talk page of WikiProject Computer science. Comments should be added on this page, below.''

As part of the Notability wikiproject, I am trying to sort out whether this topic is notable enough to have its own article. The sources that are currently given are not convincing: The two "features" on the PHP websites are very short and might even be republishing of press releases or the like. But maybe there is a different reason why this software is notable? Or maybe the content should be merged to List of object-relational mapping software, in abbreviated form?

Your opinions are welcome; please add your comments below. --B. Wolterding 17:35, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I came here via your WP:COMPSCI notice. I personally feel that this isn't notable, and although I'm not a PHP specialist, I haven't actually come across this at all. Angus Lepper(T, C, D) 19:10, 21 July 2007 (UTC)


 * I found another magazine snippet of similar quality to those already referenced, but I'm not sure if these qualify as "significant coverage" in independent sources; I'd be looking for at least a full magazine article, I think. -- tiny plastic Grey Knight  ⊖  11:50, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
