XMLA Consumers

edit

Few reasons:

  • There are hundreds of XMLA consumers now. It's like having list of ODBC consumers.
  • Wikipedia:NOTLINK#LINK policy - There is nothing wrong with adding one or more useful content-relevant links to an article; however, excessive lists can dwarf articles and detract from the purpose of Wikipedia
  • WP:EL policy - which have the following categories to be avoided:
- Links to sites that primarily exist to sell products or services
- Lists of links to manufacturers, suppliers or customers

  • I agree that the list is not complete but I doubt that there a hundred of XMLA consumers. What are you sources?
  • Most technical product on Wikipedia provides a link to commercial product. This is what makes this article valuable. Without the link to sites to provide the technology the articles would be very dry.
  • Yes, I am associated with ReportPortal but link it to its non commercial open source product.
