The article Sun Microsystems keyboard has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Not everything that verifiably exists needs an article, we are not a product guide. No evidence of notability.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Sun Keyboards
editHey Vladcz! Are you a former Sun employee? If so, it could be a possibility to publish your research elsewhere on the web so you could be a recognized expert on the subject of Sun keyboards. Dwaro (talk) 14:23, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Dwaro: Yes, I am. My motivation is to have the info accessible on visible/stable place just like Apple_Keyboard.
- Great! The current problem is that Wikipedia does not allow their contributors to publish stuff in the article without any source. That's why your article is marked for deletion. If you could publish your content on your own website and state that you are a former Sun employee, then that could be used as a reliable source. Because the article is currently not notable enough because of the lack of source, I would like to try keeping the information by merging the information about the keyboards into the articles about the desktops they got delivered with. The article could probably stay in Wikipedia if you have more information about the notability of these keyboards, such as their influence on other keyboards.

- @Vladcz: And I know, it is unfair, the Apple keyboard article has been tagged since 2006 and it is still lacking citations. That's very unfair, but I hope you're not discouraged documenting the keyboards. I also want the knowledge to be available on a central place, so please continue!
