ARS Code of Conduct

Note that this wikiproject is only intended to improve the encyclopedia. The project is not about casting votes or vote-stacking. Be sure to follow the guideline on canvassing. This means, in part, that you should use Template:Rescue list on the deletion discussion page when you list the discussion here.
Focus on improving content. For example, when working on an article listed for rescue, try to qualify topic notability by adding reliable-source references with significant coverage of the topic. Edit the content to address specific concerns raised in the AfD discussion.
Show the light. If you comment in an AfD discussion, try to describe points in the nomination that have been corrected. Note any remaining deficiencies (e.g. lack of organization, structural problems, lack of balance, etc.). Base comments upon Wikipedia's deletion policy. If an article has been rewritten, you may place a comment in the AfD as a courtesy to assist the closing admin in determining which article version others were referring to.

For more information about article rescue, please refer to ARS Tips to help rescue articles and ARS Rescue guide

The following is a list and discussion of Wikipedia content for rescue consideration! When posting here, please be sure to:

First familiarize yourself with Wikipedia's guidelines for topic notability and identifying reliable sources.

Include specific rationale why the article/content should be retained on Wikipedia, and any ideas to improve the content.

Tag the deletion discussion with {{subst:rescue list|~~~~}}, to inform editors about the listing here. The tag can be placed below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

The nominator thinks that the "Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary" policy is violated. In my opinion, the references however clearly show that the topic of the article is not only a word, but a notable concept, first known mainly in Japanese culture, then internationally. I have expanded the article to explain this, but more sources could be added to explain this even more clearly. Furthermore, WP:WORDISSUBJECT perhaps applies here. Any help welcomed! --Edcolins (talk) 15:32, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Lacking in sources that clearly distinguish this as its own topic (several sources listed in AfD, discussion over WP:NEWS and INHERITED)
Article is a widely known Wikipedia MediaWiki sub-project
As open source projects go, it is likely to be used elsewhere (and has already)
There's a Korean article (not that that counts for the AfD)
Handy for cross-wiki navigation which would be more difficult if merged
A good place for expanding the growing importance/feedback/effect of the editor on WP, which would not be possible in a smaller merged section Widefox; talk 13:56, 27 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
