FluxBB on Wikipedia will be deleted soon (updated)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FluxBB
I don't want to contribute to Wikipedia anymore.
Note: It won't be deleted, actually.

About 90% in this list will be deleted, too.

To add insult to this injury (well, for "them"), I personally think the PunBB article should go too, and that is a discussion I have just begun.

Can't see how being of notable value would have any bearing regardless. An active development is an active development. Some online Encyclopedia if hype is the prime motive for inclusion. I always thought Encyclopedia's were supposed to be a source non-selective factual reference regarding any and all things, or am I just being old-fashioned?

Old-fashioned? Obviously. The only software that's important is notable software: why would you ever need verifiable, factual information about anything else?

Most of forum softwares in the list may be also deleted, because of the same reason. Only phpBB, IP.Board, and vBulletin are safe now.

Fortunately, FluxBB may not be deleted this time, because more people think Wikipedia should keep it. However, lots of forum systems in Wikipedia have been deleted, including PunBB.
