Wikipedia can be strange sometimes, in particular the german variant.
Ignoring all other factors, IMO there should be an article about
Odin the programming language. Deleting an article about something
that exists, is incredibly stupid; not sure why Wikipedia resorts to
that. If Wikipdia deems Odin not noteworthy - and I don't really care
about Odin myself - then the article could be kept short. That would
still be better than deleting it.
Wikipedia started with the goal of a database of literally everything.
One could argue that Odin is not relevant because it may not be used
by anyone, but then this would need to be an objective argument based
on numbers and data, because many other programming languages are used
by few people yet are mentioned on Wikipedia. So, that seems to be a
stupid decision by those responsible on Wikipedia. CensorshipBros are
annoying in general - the english wikipedia is much more open than the
german wikipedia by the way.
