[stack] Wikipedia page being deleted

[Chris Double]

Just a heads up that the Joy [1] and Cat [1] wikipedia pages have been
requested to be deleted by Christopher Monsanto [2]. If you have any
notability information now is the time to bring it up:

[2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_(programming_language)

Oh dear. The Factor page has been put on notice as well. I see the Nemerle page has already been nuked.

I can understand the benefit of pulling things like Ioke. I can't understand the benefit of pulling Factor. Unfortunately, you can't write taste into the notability guidelines.

So has the Alice ML page.

Yes, programming languages don't really fit with the strict
interpretation of Wikipedia's notability.

Does anyone know how to "bring something up"? I viewed that
discussion, clicked 'edit', and was taken into editing the Joy entry
itself. I don't want to do that.
