Line 12 ⟶ 16:

::::: ''"out of which PHP is a widely used one. Please be constructive, we don't need hundreds of examples, a few would suffice"'': reliable sources of information shouldn't use the widely used thing as the main example: articles on Wikipedia needs to be written on a neutral point of view without bias or spamming. You may put the content, you are finding to be important, on the PHP article and add [[PHP]] on the "See also": this article is not it. I think I'm done here: I don't want to waste more time on this article. There's no need to revert my edit again. [[User:Ttt74|Ttt74]] ([[User talk:Ttt74|talk]]) 23:23, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

:::::: Please stop {{Diff|Server Application Programming Interface|705684794|705682023|deleting content mindlessly}}, and you're welcome not to waste your time any more. — [[User:Dsimic|Dsimic]] ([[User talk:Dsimic#nobold|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Dsimic|contribs]]) 23:29, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

::::::: After searching for "Server Application Programming Interface" on google, I found few results and what I found is only ISAPI, NSAPI, Oracle SAPI and Apache SAPI. Seems that this term is not being widely used. So what I did is further moving the content to [[Web API#SAPI]] [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Web_API&diff=705750705&oldid=705748950] and [[PHP]] instead of keeping redundancy infos and wasting energy on a separate article. I've moved [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=PHP&diff=705750809&oldid=705598183] the PHP example to [[PHP]] article and added [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Web_API&diff=705750976&oldid=705750705] PHP into the ''See Also'' section of [[Web API]]. Can we seek this merge as a compromize? [[User:Ttt74|Ttt74]] ([[User talk:Ttt74|talk]]) 10:2122, 19 February 2016 (UTC)

:::::::: Well, I'm wondering why should only I care about this article? If nobody else cares, I won't go into edit warring with you. This is just Wikipedia, and very few people take it seriously anyway. — [[User:Dsimic|Dsimic]] ([[User talk:Dsimic#nobold|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Dsimic|contribs]]) 23:42, 19 February 2016 (UTC)

::::::::: I hope I did the right thing: I'm always trying to compromize and do the right decisions. [[User:Ttt74|Ttt74]] ([[User talk:Ttt74|talk]]) 11:24, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

:::::::::: In my book, doing that wasn't the right thing. Just my $.02. — [[User:Dsimic|Dsimic]] ([[User talk:Dsimic#nobold|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Dsimic|contribs]]) 15:32, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

::::::::::: What do you mean by "''Just my $.02''"? [[User:Ttt74|Ttt74]] ([[User talk:Ttt74|talk]]) 15:45, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

:::::::::::: Use a dictionary to [http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com/My+two+cents look it up]. — [[User:Dsimic|Dsimic]] ([[User talk:Dsimic#nobold|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Dsimic|contribs]]) 16:18, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

::::::::::: Can you explain why you think ''doing that wasn't the right thing''? [[User:Ttt74|Ttt74]] ([[User talk:Ttt74|talk]]) 20:12, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

::::::::::::# "SAPI", as a term, is used widely enough to deserve a separate article.

::::::::::::# SAPI can be explained and understood by the readers much better in a separate article.

::::::::::::# [[WP:MERGE|Mergers]], in general, should go through proposals that stay open for extended periods of time.

:::::::::::: ... to sum it up briefly. — [[User:Dsimic|Dsimic]] ([[User talk:Dsimic#nobold|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Dsimic|contribs]]) 20:18, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

:::::::::::::# Only Microsoft, Netscape and Apache use it.

:::::::::::::# the content that was on this article was very few.

:::::::::::::# OK, You're right here, I missed that. [[User:Ttt74|Ttt74]] ([[User talk:Ttt74|talk]]) 21:00, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

:::::::::::::: Wouldn't SAPI be notable enough if only Apache used it, even if Microsoft's IIS didn't use it? It doesn't matter that the article was a stub, we have numerous even smaller stubs all around. — [[User:Dsimic|Dsimic]] ([[User talk:Dsimic#nobold|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Dsimic|contribs]]) 21:15, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

::::::::::::::: Stubs are not great: they just keep redundency everywhere and cause many waste of time and scattered content, instead of being unified. [[User:Ttt74|Ttt74]] ([[User talk:Ttt74|talk]]) 21:28, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

:::::::::::::::: That's ''your'' opinion, to which I respectfully disagree. — [[User:Dsimic|Dsimic]] ([[User talk:Dsimic#nobold|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Dsimic|contribs]]) 22:06, 20 February 2016 (UTC)
