ZNC (IRC bouncer)
- ZNC (IRC bouncer) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Not notable. Sourced to wikis, blogs, and documentation. Misplaced Pages is not a software directory. Miami33139 (talk) 17:37, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
- That's ridiculous, ZNC has a large community and is easily the second most popular bouncer behind psyBNC. If you want to go down this road, you will have to delete psyced, InspIRCd, Gozerbot, PBot, Psotnic, Mozbot, EnergyMech and Darkbot, and a lot of other articles as well. Also, if you wanted to follow through with Misplaced Pages is not a software directory, please go ahead and delete: Comparison of IRC clients, Comparison of mobile IRC clients, Comparison of IRC daemons, Comparison of IRC services and 99% of the entries in Category:Internet_Relay_Chat_clients. Thanks for listening and please re-consider your deletion request. Fl4kes (talk) 17:47, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
- Reply "99% of the entries in Category:Internet_Relay_Chat_clients" might be a good idea. I image a dozen or so have good references and the rest don't. Miami33139 (talk) 17:50, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
- If someone wants to compare the recent download statistics of ZNC and psyBNC, 2447 downloads of ZNC-0.074 in 2 months, and 13386 downloads of psyBNC 2.3.2.7 in over four years. That makes about 40 ZNC downloads per day, and only around 7 for psyBNC. Fl4kes (talk) 18:01, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
- Fl4kes, Please don't feed the troll, Miami33139 is currently on a crusade to delete all articles I've worked on since they finally managed to run off User:Ed Fitzgerald and are now bored. They just mass-AfD'd a bunch of IRC-related articles to get revenge on me for calling them out on their behaviour elsewhere. The majority of these articles can be improved and sourced, but Miami33139 has a vested interest in not doing so as this is a game to them to see just how many they can get deleted. --Tothwolf (talk) 19:48, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
- Keep, it is clearly notable, Misplaced Pages does have articles on notable software, without being a software directory. Non-notable would be something for which no sources exist, or where all sources are primary sources. -- Oldlaptop321 (talk · contribs) 00:18, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
- You said that a non-notable piece of software would be one where all sources are primary sources. That is true for this article! Miami33139 (talk) 17:06, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
- How do you know? Please describe what steps you took to look for sources. Uncle G (talk) 19:32, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
