CodeGear (threaded)
I'm a bit curious - why did you delete the CodeGear article? I mean, sure, it was an extremely short stub, but the topic is a valid one, since it's the new company for the Developer Tools Group at Borland, and thus the new home of their Delphi programming language, such as Delphi. --Pidgeot (t) (c) (e) 17:41, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
 * If you were aware I deleted it, the reason for deletion can be inferred from the following comment:
 * 11:16, November 15, 2006 Freakofnurture (Talk | contribs | block) deleted "CodeGear" (content was: 'The new name of the Borland spin-off that's going to handle the development tools. Previously code-named DevCo.' (and the only contributor was 'Mgenereu'))
 * The article was deleted because it gave insufficient context for expansion, see WP:CSD. — freak([ talk]) 19:41, Nov. 15, 2006 (UTC)
 * That same criteria mentions this:
 * Limited con tent is not in itself a reason to delete if there is enough con text for the article to qualify as a valid stub.
 * WP:STUB states:
 * A stub is an article that is too short to provide encyclopedic coverage of the subject, but not so short as to provide no useful information.
 * The text (very, very briefly) explained what CodeGear is, where they come from, and what they will be doing. I wouldn't consider that a lack of context, and it IS a stub, since it does provide at least some useful information (though not much, due to the short length).
 * That being said, the discussion is pretty moot by now, since a new article has been created. --Pidgeot (t) (c) (e) 16:57, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
