Is this a common behaviour on wikipedia to propose an article for deletion within 5 days and then go on vacation?

Wikipedia sucks, their form of moderation leaves a lot to be desired. When I launched PHPXref, I went into some pages to add my site as a good reference for PHP apps. I think I changed like 5 pages, adding my link under other resource sites that had been there. A few days later, the links were gone. I went into the discussion on one of the pages and this idiot moderator called my site questionable because I had ads on my front page, never bothering to peruse the site to see what it was about.

It is against wikipedia policy to add things directly related to you to wikipedia, your site may be useful, but it does have adverts, so it could be seen that you added it to wikipedia for personal gain.

I understand what you're saying, but I was adding my site under links to other sites of the same genre. I would of never added my link, had there not been other links there already.

Then go improve it instead of whining. I just created a stub.

I will improve it as a real Wikipedia article.

The article currently has a couple notices on it. You might want to take a look at them. smile

Re: Supporting FluxBB

This isn't really the place, a new thread would've been better.

About the status: a few things still need to be done, but there is no official timeframe. We work on it when we have time, and try to deliver software that's as good as we can get it. That takes time.
About the extensions: I don't think any official extensions will be packaged with the standard installation, no. You'll be able to download them from the extension repository like any other extension.
