2/24/2023 0 Comments Adium review![]() ![]() They are good examples of notability, but they aren't useful in the article itself. ![]() The article should not cite "over 1 million google hits" or "This is the only OS X messenger which Gtalk references". Perfecto 00:26, 24 February 2006 (UTC) Reply I provided a good bit of evidence about why Adium is notable, but none of it belongs in the article. See Wikipedia:Notability (software)" I found no proof of its notability in the current article. GregChant 19:51, 23 February 2006 (UTC) Reply Just as the the tag said, " please expand the article to establish notability, citing reliable sources. Do we need additional proof? Incidentally - why do Fire and Proteus not have a Notability template as well? - dcclark ( talk) 16:24, 23 February 2006 (UTC) Reply I agree. Likewise, Gizmo Project's only supported 3rd-party tool is Adium.Īdium has also spawned Growl, another notable piece of software. As a random example, Adium is the only third-party messenger which Google has configuration instructions for on its Gtalk site. It is usually considered the most popular multiprotocol messenger for OS X. A Google search for "Adium" (not a common word otherwise) returns over 1 million hits. It has well over 5000 users (I think the last estimates were around 30,000 - 40,000) and has been around since OS X 10.0. Adium is one of the "big three" third-party messengers for OS X: Proteus, Fire, Adium. I'm amazed that someone added the Notability template to this page. David dchoby98, Adium Developer Just a note: GRAHAMUK's comment, the one David was referring to, was about a previous version of the page, and Adium has since been rewritten. Starting with a nice request and suggestions on how to make this entry more encyclopaedic, instead of a hostile demand, would be a great way to improve this entry. If you would like to contact one of the Adium developers, head to. A quick search revealed others quite like it, for other instant messengers: Trillian (instant messenger), Fire (instant messenger), MSN Messenger, AOL Instant Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, iChat, many of which are far more ad-like than this one. I'm afraid that I don't understand what you dislike about this page. ![]() It's also not important enough to warrant a link on the Mac OS X page, sorry. I'm going to point it out on votes for deletion, so get your act together or expect to see it gone. This page is just a free advert for the software, it is not an encyclopedia article. ![]()
