Speedy deletion nomination of Forecast (software)


A tag has been placed on Forecast (software), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Hello, I'm Skyerise. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Wicca, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Skyerise (talk) 21:58, 1 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Thank you, Skyerise. I've now updated the content with citations. Those should rightfully have been there from the beginning. So, thank you for reminding me. Please let me know if there is anything further, I can do to improve the addition. kaspernymand (talk) 23:14, 1 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Wicca Daily does not appear to be a reliable source; it's more of a blog post. I've replaced that citation with a request for a better one. Skyerise (talk) 23:21, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I do agree that Wicca Daily's website is questionable. However, their website is at times ranking high on search engines and their active Facebook-page currently has ~219.000 followers. Thus, they do seem to have a significant reach. This was the basis for the choice of source. However, I will seek better options, as I'm not too confident myself either. kaspernymand (talk) 23:45, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
 * "Reach" doesn't help. The byline isn't even a full name. Independently published books and journal articles are preferred on Wikipedia. With a (probably) WordPress-based cite like "Wicca Daily", they would have to establish on their about page what their editorial process is and who the editors are. As it is, articles on the site are likely to be self-published by the owners of the site. See WP:SPS for why this isn't acceptable. Skyerise (talk) 00:08, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
