Talk:XBRLS

Notability
XBRLS doesn't have much notability and jus a few links because XBRLS is a brand new, only a few months old.

Importance
XBRLS is a mayor evolution and improvement on the XBRL standard. The aim of XBRLS is to simplify the standard to make XBRL's adoption wider. Lancet (talk) 07:59, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * But an aim doesn't make something notable; it's all a bit crystal ball right now. If there had been adoption, and documented adoption then maybe. --Blowdart | talk 09:01, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Adoption is a very slow process, it has been slow for XBRL that exists since 10 years and has been very partially adopted and is still far from being fully functional. Nobody knows if XBRLS is going to impose itself as an evolution of the main standard, it's still too early to tell but at least 3 facts speak for the notability of this article:
 * Charlie Hoffman the creator of XBRLS is also known as the "father" of XBRL and thus a very notable member of the XBRL community.
 * Any actual or potential user of XBRL may want to know about XBRLS even if he decides not to adopt it.
 * Data Interactive is an independent 3rd party source.
 * Cheers, Lancet (talk) 11:31, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I take your point; but right now it's almost tempting to merge it into XBRL, at least until there's adoption and more non-primary sources. --Blowdart | talk 13:29, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Blowdart, I don't think that other editors would agree to your proposed merging, please see the discussion on this topic on the XBRL discussion page. Cheers

I've have added two sections XBRLS Architecture and XBRL components not used in XBRLS that I hope will allow to Cheers Lancet (talk) 08:37, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
 * make clearer the differences between the dialect and the main standard
 * make clearer why XBRLS specifics should appear in an independent article

Took away Notability and Primarysources tags put on August 2008, article has improved since. Cheers Lancet (talk) 09:16, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
