Proposed deletion of Project Pier[edit]

The article Project Pier has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

non-notable, no third party sources provided or found

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

sources[edit]

Wikipedia requires sourcing from reliable third party sources with a reputation for fact checking and accuracy - given the subject you are working on, places like wired or techcrunch would be potential valid sources. forums and blog postings are not. Coverage in standard newspapers may also be used - if you dont have access to a library's system of online newspaper files, using news.google.com gives a bunch of generally reliable sources.Active Banana (^bananaphone 11:18, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Project Pier[edit]

Hi, your page doesn't meet our notability guidelines so I have moved it to User:Spiderthumb/Project Pier to enable you to improve it. In particular you need to find some independent reviews in reputable publications that say why this software is particularly good. You could then try to move it back to article space and see how it fares. TerriersFan (talk) 01:37, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
