User talk:Dextech

Hello and Welcome to WikiIndex. Looks like Alberta Directory is not a wiki and is subject to being deleted. Please let us know if that is not the case. Cheers! the folks at WikiIndex. — preceding unsigned comment added by 98.246.8.245 (talk) – 09:19, 18 January 2012 (UTC).

On the contrary it is intended to be a drupal based wiki for Alberta, Canada. We emphasize the directory so we can grow the user base, but as you will see from the key pages and content categories we are building and policing it as an informational wiki of the area. The challenge as I'm sure you know is to get people interested in editing, the best way to do this we find is to give them an incentive (in this case add their organization). From there it branches out into the organizations and regions they are associated with, and eventually the more rich and specific content will follow. We are developing an auto keyword glossary that will help us build a nice relational spiderweb of Alberta.

I logged in to add notes about the development progress but see that your community isn't all that interested in it. Dextech 21:49, 6 February 2012 (PST)

Hello Dextech... I wanted to explain why exactly I deleted your page here on WikiIndex. The page history was:

• 26 January 2012 TeraS deleted "Alberta Directory" ‎ (delete as per tag)
• 16:23, 18 January 2012 . . Hoof Hearted (link to creators talk page)
• 07:54, 18 January 2012 . . Hoof Hearted (NAW, (delete|not a wiki, just an ordinary website, see talk page}
• 03:50, 18 January 2012 . . Dextech
• 03:39, 18 January 2012 . . Dextech (Created page with "{{Wiki |wiki_name=Alberta Directory |wiki_URL=http://albertadirectory.org/ |wiki_wikinode_URL=No |wiki_status=Needs love |wiki_language=English |wiki_editmode=OpenEdit |wiki_engin...")

Based on the tag added to that page, what your site looked like at the time, and the lack of response to the question posted here by the Admin of WikiIndex, it was a candidate for deletion. As well the stated delete time period of the delete tag here is 24 hours but I waited longer than it states before doing so, a week actually, which gave time for you to respond to the questions posed here. I was not being a deletionist, I was following the procedures here on this site. If you want to add your site again, you are welcome to, but if it does not fall within the purview of this site, it may be nominated for deletion again. TeraS 06:13, 7 February 2012 (PST)
