[Wikipedia-l] Entries getting delete...

[Frederick Noronha]

Hi all,

I am a journalist in Goa, India and a contributor to the Wikipedia.
Among other things, my interest is in ICT4D (information and
communication technologies for development), and have written quite a
bit on the subject.

Recently, I find some entries which I initiated coming in for 'speedy
deletion', which is kind of discouraging. Take the example below, of a
South African group whose work I know, and certainly deserves a
Wikipedia entry.

http://72.14.253.104/search?q=cache:_LQK2Uo3l5AJ:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ungana-Afrika+Ungana-Afrika+Wikipedia&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=au&client=firefox-a

Could I request a closer check before deleting entries, specially
deserving ones (which may require a few more details and inputs, but
surely not, in my view, deletion!)

Regards, FN
