Delete

1. Random woomeister website of which sources are all primary and dead. Appears to have no significance or notability. Lavalizard101 (talk) 11:02, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

   And yes I know I could just delete it myself as a sysop but I would prefer an AFD as it has been here for years and I don't like unilaterally deleting a page that has been here for so long. Lavalizard101 (talk)

   Some links are really dead, some seem to have temporary error. I've inserted archive links for the list of external links. It seems the early websites were partially replaced with new ones later, the text being dated. --ApooftGnegiol (talk) 13:50, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

2. I had a look to see if i could contribute to the page and i seen the AFD and decided i agree with @Lavalizard101 on this , also as a Sysop who brings to note his thoughts rather than acting immediately and deleting shows very good faith to me , thank you Lava.

   I've done some more work on it, and I think it's salvageable. I agree it's been very rough, but it's also been easy to find a few refs for improving it. --ApooftGnegiol (talk) 18:37, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

3. Burn it. A somebody. (talk) 01:19, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
4. Set fire to it :) DecemberRebmeced (talk) 08:44, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

1. Exactly the kind of thing where RationalWiki can fill a gap by documenting non-notable organizations that have been compared to cults. It's not gone, it's not just websites (the description is sloppy), but there's a series of organizations. "Ucadia Foundation" (ucadia.org) describes it in various terms, but very vaguely. There's apparently various Ucadia societies worldwide with a number of registered members, they seem to have their own cryptocurrency, and their own products for members, and more. An archived older version has it that "As of SOL E1:Y4:A35:S3:M9:D5 [13th of June 2016] Ucadia became a confidential organisation with the myriad of satellite sites that once made-up the open source Ucadia network being taken down." --ApooftGnegiol (talk) 14:05, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

3. Keep and improve organization pages is my point of view. Elf (talk) 10:30, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
4. Second Apooft's argument. The page needs expansion/improvement/updating, not being memory-holed. WP does not have a page, so it is on us to provide the commentary. This is exactly what RW is for! KarmaPolice (talk) 11:14, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
5. Needs expansion and more analysis, but is worth keeping around. It is certainly a missionable topic. —cosmikdebris ^talk stalk 20:45, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
6. Per Apooft's suggestion. Sincerely, Postuhenin the neurodivergent doodlebug! (say hi! ^^) 04:51, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
7. On principle it is better to improve or update on-mission articles then it is to delete them. In addition, our priority has historically been to prioritize missionality over notability (within reason). Edit. Finally, RW has no prohibition on the use of primary sources.Bob^{"Life is short and (insert adjective)"} 05:31, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
8. Sure we can all try to fill the gaps and improve this, keep for now. Intelligentguy (talk) 09:03, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
