I am searching OpenStudy on Wikipedia, and I don't find an article dedicated to OpenStudy. Can we change this? I think it deserves an article and is notable enough to pass wikipedia's noteworthiness guidelines. I think we need at least three mentions - major media or publication. The article does not have to be perfect, it can be edited.
I think this will raise public awareness of OpenStudy. Many websites already have their own wikipedia article.

Update:
There is one mention of OpenStudy in Preetha Ram's bio wiki article (nice article). But I think it deserves a detailed article, the philosophy and history of OpenStudy, when it began and such details.

Does this one counts? http://www.crunchbase.com/organization/openstudy

perl · Answer

oh does it count as a notable reference

perl · Answer

Well we could try to write an article and see what they say , they will critique it

perl · Answer

see what wikipedia says , rejection for such and such reason. then go back and satisfy their requirements

perl · Answer

Alternatively, we can expand the section on OpenStudy in Preetha Ram's bio wiki article

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preetha_Ram

It would be much easier to expand the section on OpenStudy in Preetha ram's bio wiki than to get a stand alone article.

perl · Answer

Since that page is dedicated to her

abhisar · Answer

Ummm.. I would like to see a separate page though. Let's see what other people say.

perl · Answer

@Compassionate is the social media manager, he might help.

It would be nice if i could explain what OpenStudy is to friends , by sending them a wikipedia link

abhisar · Answer

Yep, I agree. I think OS is definitely worth a wiki page.

abhisar · Answer

Other websites like brainly already have wiki page, so i would say it should be done now...

You could also use the newsletter info about quiques and accounts to add in some info about load.
