Oh for Christ's sake, not again. How is the developer of a number one selling iPhone app. possibly not noteworthy? - Bmju (talk) 11:31, 19 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Sorry, but this just annoys me, every bleeping time I create a new page, I have to have an argument on the talk page with someone about whether it is noteworthy. By the way, I don't create many new pages, and (so far) it has been agreed that those which I have created were indeed noteworthy under Wikipedia's guidlines. Which is far from presupposing that I will 'win' this dispute, but just to try to indicate that I am editing the encyclopedia in good faith, and it seems to me a waste of my valuable (to me) time to have to have these arguments every time, but please feel free to explain to me what I should be doing differently in order to avoid this. But anyway, that aside, other than common sense (to me, but clearly not to the person who posted the speedy deletion tag) here is a specific Wikipedia guideline which I think that programming a 2 million selling, number one iPhone app. meets:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:BIO#Creative_professionals

3. The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, that has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.

Specifically, Andreas Illiger has "created ... a significant or well-known work ... that has been the subject of ... multiple independent periodical articles or reviews".

OK, I have now edited the article; only slightly, but in a way which more clearly establishes independent notability without (for instance) assuming that the reader of the article already knows what 'Tiny Wings' is, as I guess I implicitly did before. - Bmju (talk) 12:14, 19 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
