It's possible I'm in a bubble, but it would be a fairly notable bubble.
Things that are perhaps niche but growing should be an argument for keeping them.
Isn't Wikipedia a compendium of facts? Odin's existence is one of those facts. /shrug

It is an encyclopedia of topics that meet its standards of notability (ie there exists "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject"[1]).
So have I. But what's notable for many HN users, may be muuuuch less notable for average dude on the street.
Wikipedia's policies on this seem pretty clear & reasonable to me. And not too high a bar to clear, imho.
So perhaps a better question is why Odin hasn't - so far. Or just agree that maybe it's not as notable (yet!) as some may think.
Odin is pretty notable imo, but what I had for lunch yesterday is a fact and it does not belong in Wikipedia. A house is a shelter for people, thus my house is a shelter for people; you are a person, but that doesn't that you belong in my house.
Nope.

Trust me, they would delete facts if they could. It's not a site for smart people.
