Line 21:
Hi! As a linguist, I find the distributed approach to be a very important development in linguistics. Surely, there are as always the usual pros and cons, but the number of papers, articles, conferences (and even a special issue of Language Sciences, Sep. 2007) clearly indicate that this is an important topic in linguistics, and therefore there is no doubt that this article should not be deleted. Whether it is written in a Wiki format or not, well, perhaps it isn't. On the other hand, there are some valuable information in the present version that might make it easier for another contributor to re-write the article. So perhaps it could be left as it is now for a while, giving other contributors some time to re-write it thouroughly?I've used Wikipedia for a couple of years now, but I haven't engaged in writing or discussing articles before, so I'm not sure about the usual procedures etc. in this situation.

*'''Keep''' As noted by others above, the concept seems to be [[WP:NOTABILITY|notable]] enough to warrant an article. The only issue seems to be one of style and content, which (IMO) can both be tackled without deleting. I'll leave my thoughts on how to improve the article on Sashakr's [[User talk:Sashakr|talk page]] to keep the discussion here from going off topic.
