Why is this page back? I thought it was agreed this article fails the notability requirement. Can't we just delete this once and for good?


How is the author of a popular web server not notable? cool-RR (talk) 21:40, 15 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]


I think he is most notable for being the troll change 334991564 mentioned. Mongrel was only popular among RoR developers and that limits how popular it can ever be. Nginx and Apache are popular. Mongrel is niche. I also find the label of "first modern approach" to anything slightly disturbing and an unbelievable overstatement.

How isn't he notable? He's not some random Joe from the street; I don't think there's anyone knowledgeable in the tech community that hasn't heard of him Zed Shaw - TechCrunch - I could find thousands of other pages in Wikipedia of people that are much less "notable" than him
