thanks, eduardo, i've now added that reference, & have boldly reinstated it as an article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furtherfield
the original reason for deletion was given as: "I just went through 20 pages of Google and couldn't find a single non-trivial article on the subject. It's written like a fan blurb and I highly doubt any serious coverage given the one seemingly realistic reference came up blank." obviously our definitions of "trivial", "serious" and "realistic" are not the same ... others have said that there is an absence of good "realiable sources", questioning whether rhizome & metamute are reliable sources. apparently the external links were also not helping, which seems kind of bizarre to me. anyway, for now it is back there, who knows for how long, & if anyone has any time to add further reliable sources or other information then please do. h : ) Eduardo Navas wrote: > Hello everyone, > > I must admit that I don't completely understand why the page would have been > proposed for deletion in the first place.
