Hobix

Blogging software, used mainly by the author itself. No notability asserted (Ruby & YAML is nice but nothing earthshaking). Freshmeat is the proper place for this text. Was PRODed, deleted and recreated from Google cache. Pavel Vozenilek 23:18, 10 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. — Arbusto 05:37, 11 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Insufficiently notable, per WP:SOFTWARE et alia, and no credible, third-party sources as required by WP:V. --Satori Son 12:56, 11 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Grudging Delete. Rarer blogware. A few people probably use it besides me. =) That said, not sure if there's a sizeable user community beyond that; doesn't seem very lively. Does not satisfy WP:SOFWARE at least on Debian (isn't packaged), not sure of the other platforms, Freshmeat page doesn't link to any packaged versions, and the Hobix website only talks of the web installer (which installs a version from 2004 that, last I checked, doesn't work in new Ruby, you've got to use the SVN version). --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 16:07, 11 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: I restored the deleted versions for time being to help with licence difficulties ensuing from "restoring from Google cache" thing. --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 16:12, 11 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  - Comment: I am the guy who restored it from Google cache. Since it was originally a Wikipedia article, the Google cache text should also be under GFDL, or under non-GFDL'd Fair Use of GFDL material. In any case, I apologise if I did wrong. I sincerely thought an admitedly rare but wikipedia-referenced blogging software deserved inclusion in Wikipedia, and that restoring from Google cache was all right. -- Candeira 21:13, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete per G4. Vectro 21:22, 11 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- G4 applies only AfD'd articles. This article was PRODded. --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 09:02, 12 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
