AfD nomination of Audible DRM
I have nominated Audible DRM, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Articles for deletion/Audible DRM. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Hi, Gregc11! I see that you're doing a great job adding information to the article that you created about Audible DRM. It is always wonderful to have new contributors that are excited to share their knowledge. I did notice, though, that the Audible.com article already has a section about Audible's Digital Rights Management. Generally, we like to keep all of the information about a subject in the parent article, unless said parent article grows too large. The Audible.com article doesn't seem to be too large at this point, so I'm wondering why you created a separate content fork for Audible DRM. One way that we could address this is to create a redirect to the Digital Rights Management section of the Audible.com article from Audible DRM. Would you be opposed to this?

RE: Audible DRM
The reason I created the new article is because I wanted more technical details about the Audibles DRM and the Audible File Format. The information in the audible.com article seems to be more of an overview, I did not want to mess with this article as this is my first one on wikipedia. I don't mind merging the additional information I have into the existing article and working from there if this is correct way to do things. I am currently working on reverse engineering the .aa format and DRM so that Audible Customers that use linux have support for the files, the article was intended to grow as I find more information.

On another note, I would suggest that when redirecting an article that someone has created that you put comments in as to the reason. Gregc11 (talk) 06:23, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
