Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Development of Windows 7
- Development of Windows 7 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
The main Windows 7 article isn't long enough to warrant a split into a sub article. That apart, there is nothing in this article to let it stand by itself. It contains mostly a list of unreffed build numbers and release dates, which fails verifiability and thus does not belong here. Plus whatever text is here is a duplication of the main Windows 7 article. The release history (what is veifiable) is already covered in Windows 7. soum talk 03:27, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- I think that it should stay because it will have to be put up eventually, why not keep it up and save the trouble, they are verified btw, maybe not by wiki but i know all the builds. --Fantasy Game Productions Inc. talk 03:30, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- (ECx2)Comment: Let that "eventuality" come up, the article can be created then. You do not know that it will need to be created, the development might be silent enough to be included in the main article itself. Just because you took the trouble of digging up the builds doesn't make it worthy of inclusion here. They have to be verifiable by means of citations to reliable sources (no forums and blogs do not count such) to be included here. Failing which, they are prime candidates for removal. Please familiarise yourself with the policies here, that will save you a lot of trouble. --soum talk 03:37, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- (ECx3)Comment: ok I understand but still... when you know the windows 7 dev team then you will know that these builds are in fact correct, I make the builds list for all Microsoft Windows OS Platforms. --Fantasy Game Productions Inc. talk 03:46, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
