===[[Guitar Programming]]===

[[WP:NOR]] Original research, self-posted

Please read [[WP:NOR]] to understand why this is unsuitable for Wikipedia. Thanks. --[[User:Nagle|John Nagle]] 08:06, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

* '''Comment''' Article author deleted "prod" template, then deleted AfD template from [[Guitar Programming]]. I left explanatory messages in [[User talk:Nirelan]]. This is a first article by a new user. --[[User:Nagle|John Nagle]] 08:33, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

* This is an article about a college research project and there is no reason it should be removed. He thought I was the "Nick Ireland" in the article when it auctually reads "Nick Irelan" and talks about a computer science student (I am not a student of any kind). John dosen't even really read the articles he only skims through to find what could possibly be the slightest problem then asks that they be deleted in order to gain attention. I don't know him or have anything against him I just think he was mistaken about who I am. <small><span class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Nirelan|Nirelan]] ([[User talk:Nirelan|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Nirelan|contribs]]) </span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned -->

**A lot of articles about (seemingly) non-notable subjects get created by the people responsible for the subject, so it seems like an understandable mistake. "Nirelan" might well be an abbreviation of "Nick Ireland". (That's not what it is, of course.) If you had been the Nick Ireland in question, that still wouldn't be the problem with the article - the problem is with [[WP:N|notability]], as others have said.

*'''Delete'''. I'm with the attention seeker; college research projects are not notable. [[User:David Sneek|David Sneek]] 09:12, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

*'''Keep It''' They are definatly notable when they affect a billion dollar industry. Google began as a college resaerch project. Think about how different the world would be if it was simply dismissed as not being noteable because its was a college project. <small><span class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Nirelan|Nirelan]] ([[User talk:Nirelan|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Nirelan|contribs]]) </span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned -->

** Nobody is dismissing anything. The problem is that Wikipedia is here to describe things that ''are'' notable, not things that ''might be'' notable one day. We don't know which of today's research projects will change the world like Google did: therefore we don't write about any of them until ''after'' they've changed the world. &mdash; [[User:Haeleth|Haeleth]] <small>[[User_talk:Haeleth|Talk]]</small> 11:51, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

** I agree with [[User:Haeleth|Haeleth]], '''delete''' with all due respect!

** Google is notable because it is a major search engine and massive corporation, not because it was a college project! [[User:Robin Johnson|Robin Johnson]] 12:26, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
