Standard PHP Library
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Almost one-year ago this article was nominated for deletion. "This could be expanded into a good article", people said, and a year later, no one has actually been bothered enough to do this. Abandoned articles are highly error prone as the Seigenthaler incident demonstrates. Further, I still stand by all the arguments I made last year. The Standard PHP Library isn't developed independently of the language as the C standard library and C++ standard library - it is part of the language. As such, this article no more deserves to exist than Articles for deletion/BCMath, Articles for deletion/PHP Data Objects (2nd nomination). Misterdiscreet (talk) 15:00, 21 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete Too small, too non-notable, too unreliable... Raymie Humbert (TrackerTV) (receiver, archives) 22:48, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. If this article had more information, I says merge into PHP, but it's too small. And, per Misterdiscreet, PHP library is part of the PHP language and don't presents a new solution or approach. Zero Kitsune (talk) 02:24, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete, no content worth mentioning, if anyone genuinely feels they can write a worthwhile article on the topic, they can do so just as effectively with this deleted as with it not. --Stormie (talk) 07:09, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
