The result was delete. I'm sorry mvst3r10n but there's a clear consensus to delete here. It's not enough for something to exist, it has to also be written about. Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:08, 6 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Previous Prod with rationale "No evidence that this software meets the notability criteria.". Prod was removed by an IP with a comment identifying themselves as the software author. The original Prod issues remain, so bringing this to AfD. AllyD (talk) 23:20, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- You have written: This article relies on references to primary sources or sources affiliated with the subject, rather than references from independent authors and third-party publications. Please add citations from reliable sources. (April 2012). I understand that information should be independent for many articles. But for this open source software too? What's the difference, if Im involved, the author, or an anonymous account did it? There stand just technical information and no opinions or somethings. And regarding relevance that you're concerned, have only big software labels a place on wikipedia? I use often wikipedia to search software and APIs for my projects, no matter how small or big they're. It helps me daily to find the right choice. So, I thought: Why not writing about a new open source database especially for large time series that helps people where're searching too. Hope that I have noboy annyoed with this article. mvst3r10n (talk) 01:52, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate directory of all software. The benchmark that subjects have to meet to have an article is notability, and the general notability guideline is significant coverage in multiple, independent reliable sources. With no coverage in independent sources, Widebase fails the GNG. —C.Fred (talk) 01:11, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
