Easy Web Editor

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Contested prod. Article is about non-notable software, with no reliable sources provided and none found. Only info I could find was mirrored download sites. TN X Man 16:16, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Hi! Thank you for helping me improving. I added the reason that I believe makes this editor noticeable: it was the first editor with visual linking and visual editing (I am a longtime fan and I use it from the very beginning, and nothing else was available at that time. Unfortunately it was born in Italy, where there is not Venture Capital or so... It's always the same story - maybe you know that the telephone was invented by the Italian Meucci, who did not have the money... then Bell with $ $ started the business... ). --Zioziozio (talk) 18:06, 3 May 2009 (UTC) — Zioziozio (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Hum I contest so. As for the information and new references that Zioziozio recently added, it is historically the first visual web editor, at least the only one with verifiable information, within the Politecnico di Torino archives and ED-Media archives. I propose to keep the article and to remove the external links that could be promo. --Tutankamoon (talk) 14:36, 7 May 2009 (UTC) — Tutankamoon (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


 * Thank you very much Tutankamon, as you noticed I added references, and now I have removed most external links, I just left one (but maybe it is needed to remove it? please help!). Probably it was my fault: I am not a wiki expert and I did not intend to promote anything, I simply used another software page as template as I do not remember all these wiki codes, and I just changed the links, from the other one to this (it seems that somebody has the right to add links, and somebody else not, but well I realize they are probably overwhelmed by bad attempts and the first reaction for a new article with links probably is the "delete" button...). It's really a pity because if a valuable information about the Web history is not on a Web encyclopedia, it will be probably lost. I am not a "power" user so I believe there is a little else I can do. --Zioziozio (talk) 17:13, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
