User:Gnassar/Open Movie Editor


Userspace draft from September 2011 about non-notable software. Ricky81682 (talk) 04:58, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

I was short on time when I first created this and was hoping someone would do a little Googling and WP:BOLD that sucker instead of MfD'ing it, but I guess there aren't a lot of international users on the English WP page... that's a shame.

I went ahead and expanded the article, adding the distros that it is available in (that I knew of), a few unique features, and an interview done with the author after he gave a talk at the Linux Audio Conference 2009 with a Portuguese web magazine. I basically used the Kino (software) article as a model for what needed to be included for the software to be considered "sufficiently" notable, since that one clearly is considered so and has been discontinued for approximately the same amount of time. The sheer number of words isn't the same, but the article contains basically the same kinds of content -- if WP editors really think a longer feature list is necessary, I can throw more in, I guess. If there is something else I missed necessary to prove its notability, let me know. Gnassar (talk) 11:35, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

I should add: At this point I think it not only is improved to where it shouldn't be deleted, but that it is sufficiently notable to where it should be un-userified and would request such. (And in case anyone wonders: no, never met the software author and no involvement with the software's development -- it's just a tool I happened to find useful.)

 * I'm not sure it would be sufficient to pass an AFD if put directly into articlespace right now. Would you be ok with moving it to draftspace as Draft:Open Movie Editor under WP:AFC? People will then examine it there. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 18:54, 9 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep. Valid usersubpage draft of an active editor.  Encourage the author to move it to mainspace to see it tested properly.  AfC is for authors who don't know what they are doing.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 04:56, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep. Attacking valid users is not something that helps us out. 🎺🎺🎺🎺
 * Block evasion. Nyttend (talk) 11:54, 12 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep. Deletion might have been reasonable when the nomination was created: it was a trivial bit in the userspace of someone who hadn't edited in nearly a year, and it hadn't been modified by the "someone" since 2011, but post-nomination edits demonstrate his continued interest in the topic.
