if phpBB can be found at wiki. then it must also go with NodeBB.
maybe it's a problem that a NodeBB1 is an open source softwaer 2. is also sold komerziell
because thinking wiki that you want to advertise your product.
it depends on how your formulation of words is.
it must be based solely on the open source program.
I can unfortunately not so good english.
One example is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PhpBB -
I added NodeBB to the Wikipedia site "Comparison of Internet forum software", that might be a first step to get a whole own page too. Let's see if they accept it, but I don't see any reason why they shouldn't. You can go here for the history, and click "thank" and maybe also write on the "talk" page. That way they see that people are interested in it.

It got accepted! Whooooooo!
-
If I read a forum software comparison article on Wikipedia and it didn't mention NodeBB, then that article would be pretty poor! Whoever is deleting it is a vandal.

Nice! And thanks
That feature list was probably tailored to forums from the 90s... Calendar? And stuff like images in posts and unread tracking should be standard.
We're the only forum on that page that doesn't have its own dedicated page though, I'm assuming that's why it was deleted twice

Thats the most important page to be on, I think. Its the one that I checked at first (although, ultimately, I ended up finding NodeBB through a discussion on Discourse, ironically enough).
As for an article, in the past when I was very active on wiki, it was longevity more then anything that led to article creation. Wikipedia is fickle as HELL about what's "notable", but if nodebb stays active and alive for a very long period of time, they eventually let it in.

Heeyyyyy, I plan on using @pitaj 's calendar when I get my forum converted.

Does someone still have the old copy of the wikipedia:NodeBB article? Because when you click on the link you get the message that this article has existed before and got deleted due to:
No explanation of significance (real person/animal/organization/web content/organized event)
I'd like to take a look at it, rewrite it a bit and then post it with the message that NodeBB is in the forum list now too.
-
@BDHarrington7 You mean that one that is buggy, outdated, and unfinished? I'd better get to work on it then.
-
That's the one!
-
@rbeer NodeBB can run in a cluster, so yes.
-
Glad you got nodeBB included in the list - congrats!
As someone that recently went through that list in search of a modern forum, I suggest submitting either changes or additions to the rather stale list of features. APIs, messaging/chats, admin control through the browser are features I think are more important today than aforementioned calendar.
The wiki article reflects the stale nature of traditional forums. Best way to combat it (and spread the good word of nodeBB) is to propose changes to the article.

Well, looks like we got deleted again: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Comparison_of_Internet_forum_software&action=history
I guess it's because NodeBB isn't forum software - it's much more awesome than that.

@psychobunny, yeah. Just undo his deletions all the time. It is >4 against 1
He is a phpBB fan, I looked at his contributions. I hate Wikipedia for the possibility that people can delete something just because they don't like it
