Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Working Out Loud

The term is not being promoted. It is being used. Links to other relevant wikipedia articles are numerous, and numerous research themes are directly related to the growing application of the term. I understand your initial reflections about 'fad' and I also saw that a consultant (John Steppard) had mingled in. However, that does not really make the relevance disappear. The first obvious links to wikipedia articles could be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Community (since working out loud is about a community culture materialising in behaviours), but also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network-centric_organization or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_organization are direct references where working out loud is the materialised behaviour which determines the success of these organizational concepts. In addition, if we need to expand, we can draw directly on the social research on motivation and relationships. I apologize for my lack of wikipedia digital literacy, but I do think it makes good sense to keep it.
