 * Please explain to me how the following pages have been created with zero (0) of the stuff you are requiring for the pager i am trying tp create.
 * GBBS
 * Networks II
 * Hermes (BBS)
 * and many more.....why those and not this one Nglayton (talk) 02:00, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you letting me know I have now flagged each for deletion. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 02:25, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Seriously?
 * All I am trying to do is get Warp6 BBS added to this page.
 * List of BBS software
 * This page is very useful, except it's incomplete and missing several pieces of software.
 * In order to add it (warp6 BBS), It was stated that I have to have a page for it. Just trying to comply with the rules. The author of the software is now dead. Any print articles would be from magazines that no longer exist and are possibly not digitized,
 * Finding references for 30 year old obsolete software, it going to be pretty hard. You deleting all references to it is equal to destroying a piece of history. Just because you don't think it exists, doesn't mean it never did.
 * Perhaps you should just mark for deletion the entire list since the standards for submission are completely unobtainable. Nglayton (talk) 02:39, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Those standards are not, in fact, unobtainable, given the fact that we have over six million articles. If there are no secondary sources for a subject, it's simply not notable. Drmies (talk) 02:41, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
 * You, in fact, DO NOT have 6 million articles about the subject matter I am referring to.  Being simply not notable, doesn't mean it did not exist.  Verifiable references existing in the magnitude you are requiring (New York Times, etc), simply do not exist for software that is 30 years old for the multiple computer platforms that are listed in that article I referenced earlier.   Nglayton (talk) 03:00, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
 * No one is doubting existence. Wikipedia is not a record of everything, everywhere, ever. It is an encyclopedia about notable topics. We determine notability based on available sources. Sources do not have to be on the internet as long as someone could potentially go to an archive or library and find the source to verify the information. If there are no sources or they do not meet the requirements of Reliable sources then no article is possible. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 03:06, 26 January 2023 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Warp6 BBS


Hello, Nglayton. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Warp6 BBS".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 01:32, 25 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi Liz, thanks you so much. What a crock! The reason I haven't worked on it because Wikipedia seems to have a holier than tho attitude on what has been deemed worthy of being published. After multiple attempts to merely add a simple addition to a list of BBS software for the Apple II series computer, i was met with nothing but road blocks and smart ass remarks. This notification is just one more load of crap. As a matter of fact go ahead and delete it now, none of you seem to think its worthy of being listed any way so save your precious disk space for things you deem more worthy. 24.22.37.97 (talk) 03:22, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
