Speedy deletion nomination of Cassandre Software
A tag has been placed on Cassandre Software requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Help Me
Just added a page on Cassandre Software. However, it was deleted because someone tagged it as not notable or important under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. I'd like to make the case that the page should be up as the software is a useful tool for researchers of the social sciences. Why shouldn't this software have the same chance to be displayed if all of following pieces of software merit wiki pages? Coding Analysis Toolkit, Qiqqa, RQDA, Transana. Is there a way to get that text back, or is it deleted permanently? How should I procede? Do I have to rewrite the stub in order to have the discussion?
 * OK, a few comments:
 * Notability is basically defined on Wikipedia as the subject having been covered in-depth by multiple independent reliable sources (e.g., news articles, books, magazines, academic journals, etc.)
 * Those other articles may not actually be notable either and may not merit their own article (they are all in poor shape right now, at least). Wikipedia as over 3 million articles; not all are checked. That's why we have articles for deletion, where you may nominate any of those articles for deletion if you feel there is a strong reason to remove them. See also this page.
 * The deleted text can be retrieved by administrators. I can copy the content into a draft page for you, such as User:Milkybeach/draft, where you can work on it without it being deleted. Please note that you'll need to have added multiple reliable sources and shown why it is deserving of a Wikipedia article (why it is notable) before it will become a live article. You may also submit a draft to the articles for creation process, where it will be reviewed.

 * I have copied the content into User:Milkybeach/draft for you. Please note that, while you have sources listed, they are both primary sources, and not considered reliable as we need independent, or secondary, sources.  — fetch ·  comms   02:40, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
