Deletion of FreeCodeCamp

Comment: At the very least, I think this article should just be marked as "Needs Improvement." I like the comparison to W3Schools here. Its page has 1/3 of its citations to its own website. Currently, as I write this response, there are 16 citations on the freeCodeCamp page with 9/16 citations not having a direct relation to the website itself. In reference to the  page, it poses the question "ask yourself what a reader would expect to find under the same heading in an encyclopedia" as one way to decide if a page should exist. freeCodeCamp arguably has earned its page in an encyclopedia. It has a worldwide presence on the social networking site Meetup_(website)|Meetup (https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Ameetup.com+AND+%22free+code+camp%22&oq=site%3Ameetup.com+AND+%22free+code+camp%22&aqs=chrome..69i64j69i57.879j0j9&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#q=site:meetup.com+AND+(%22free+code+camp%22+OR+%22freeCodeCamp%22) Google search results for Meetup and freeCodeCamp). As MusikAnimal has mentioned, it is true that websites with technical audiences are the ones that cover freeCodeCamp, including an established podcast (airing since 2009) The Changelog (https://changelog.com/podcast/195 "Free Code Camp with Quincy Larson"). However, web development is becoming a more widely discussed topic to more general audiences (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/quora/this-is-how-far-web-devel_b_14253862.html Huffington Post on web development and http://www.forbes.com/sites/laurencebradford/2016/12/30/the-future-of-web-development-with-gitlab-ceo-sid-sijbrandij/#2a9e8f6f1f01 Forbes article on future of web development). Disclaimer, I have used freeCodeCamp and have not and do not receive any financial benefit from them

Comment: strike|Neutral leaning weak keep}}. There's likely some COI going on here, but the article is still acceptably neutral in tone, in my opinion. Frankly I didn't find the older article at Free Code Camp to meet  either. I tried to improve this new attempt a bit, and it still needs work, but I think the subject may be notable enough to warrant inclusion, if not just marginally. The thing is technical websites are not as attractive to the general public, and hence are neglected by major outlets and reporters. Take that as a poor argument for keeping, sure, but I'm merely speaking as a web developer myself (though I've never used Free Code Camp). You might compare this article with the current state of W3Schools (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=W3Schools&oldid=761180510 permalink), which is among the most notable coding schools and widely cited web references (not the most reliable though, but I digress). Overall it's a tough call, but if it were up to me I'd say it's worth seeing how this develops &mdash

Comment: Delete Fails  and  applies. (''Changed to keep based on new sources added to article.'') This page (Free Code Camp) was speedy deleted in September, 2015 as G11, unambiguous advertising or promotion. This re-creation has the same problems. More importantly, the article doesn't establish notability. Article lacks multiple, '''significant''' coverage in independent reliable sources. The current sources in the article are not sufficient to meet this requirement. The current sources in the article consists of 8 references to the subject web site, an article about a software engineer with the web site, a Twitter message from the same software engineer, a listing in Recruiter.com, a listing in educationdive.com and an article in wire.com which is the closest to the requirements. An open Google search provide nothing new to establish notability. "Notability" is not synonymous with "fame" or "importance," and even web content that editors personally believe is "important" or "famous" is only accepted as notable if it can be shown to have attracted notice. No web content is exempt from this requirement, no matter what kind of content it is. Wikipedia is not a web directory
