sona pona:Notability: Difference between revisions

'''Notability''' is a measure of whether a topic warrants its own article, or mention on the wiki in general. Since Toki Pona is a niche topic in itself, the notability standards for {{tp|sona pona}} are more permissive than {{w|Project:Notability|those for Wikipedia}}; topics are judged by their relevance to the language or [[community]] culture.

Because [[Toki Pona]] is a niche topic in itself, {{tp|[[sona pona]]}}'s notability standards are more permissive than {{w|Project:Notability|Wikipedia's}}; topics are judged by their relevance to the language or [[community]] culture. Still, editorsEditors have varying opinions on what the wiki should include. {{w|Deletionist}}s are often concerned with learners absorbing [[word]]s and [[stylestyles of speech]]s that are not widely used or understood in practice, by which {{tp|sona pona}} would artificially influence the language rather than covering it responsibly. Inclusionists{{w|Inclusionist}}s have argued that within Toki Pona, presence in a [[learning resource]] or [[font]] may amount to notability, and {{tp|sona pona}} coverage could provide better usage disclaimers, nuance, and citations than other resources.

* Additions to existing systems require a higher level of notability than new systems.

* Articles should not give {{w|Project:Undue weight|undue weight}} to significantly less notable topics. For example, see {{sect|Project:Word articles#Related words}}.

* A list may warrant its own article, even if not all of its items do, and even if the list does not form a coherent style of Toki Pona usage.

* [[mw:Help:User page|User pages]] are not subject to notability requirements.
