Institute for New Culture Technologies-t0

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

promotional jargon-ridden over-detailed organizational webpage masquerading as an article. I tried, but I am unable to rewrite this to make an acceptable article--it would have to be started over if indeed there is any notability  DGG ( talk ) 03:49, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

- notability: t0 is recognized for being one of a few non-profit organizations in europe, that have developed a critical discourse about the internet and its social and political implications over a long time, and now they are renowned experts in this field. t0 started in 1993, so they have worked on this for almost 25 years now, which also means more or less ever since the beginning of the world wide web. and they have done this from various angles: as an alternative non-profit internet service provider (mainly during the 1990s), educational programs, new media art, research, publishing. a short selection of co-operating organizations and individual artists and researchers can be found at the end of the WP-article's history-section (almost all of them have own WP-articles). (sorry, if this again sounds like an advertisement, but the question 'is there any notability?' in a way automatically triggers that kind of reply.) - quality of the article: i think that shortening it was a good suggestion. maybe it's still not the best article on WP, but as it can be further improved, quality of the text should not be an unsurmountable problem. - „it's a mess“? (as stated in the above entry) 25 years is a long time for a small organization, with quite some changes, re-naming, sub-organizations, projects etc. and it's for sure not so easy to orient oneself with a few inputs in a search engine (although this problem doesn't really seem to be related to the WP-article). i just gave it a try and copied the article's title in duckduckgo with a good result. first entries: 1. http://world-information.net/en/ = the current url and the same as in the WP-article's infobox, 2. WP-article; 3. the old address t0.or.at, which is now an archive and had been in use until 2006, when the suborganization public netbase had to be discontinued (as briefly described in the article). keep Becomingx7 (talk) 16:14, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, it's a mess. Even searching without the odd suffix yields little. And there is apparently no German name to search for: locating the official website -- which is not in fact the site listed as such in the infobox, that's a site for a subbody -- and selecting German still displays this English name. It doesn't seem to meet WP:ORG. Delete. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 17:34, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
 * it seems that there are two topics: the notability of the subject and the quality of the article.
 * . It was moved into article space by editor Wizardman at his request. It has been deleted at least once before. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 15:43, 17 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete -- the content belongs on the org's web site, not here. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:37, 20 February 2017 (UTC)
