Wikipedia Entry for Web Application Servers

I added an entry for Vibe.d to the following Wikipedia page:

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

If anyone can give a better 1-line summary of Vibe.d I would be happy if you were to update my entry.

Someone seems to have removed the entry again... not sure what rule he
thinks was violated.

Okay, it was probably because there was a link to vibed.org, but only
links to other wikipedia articles are usually allowed. So it looks like
maybe a vibe.d article is needed first (assuming this is going to be
accepted).

Re: Wikipedia Entry for Web Application Servers

Ugh, but is vibe.d actually an application server? It does not act as a container for some external application but embeds both HTTP server and application into single process - I don't think this counts.

Looking through the list, there seem to be some "application server
toolkits" (i.e. libraries) and the term in general seems to be a bit
fuzzy, so maybe it fits indeed - not sure.

I wasn't entirely sure, but as Sönke pointed out, whatever definition they use for the page seems to be pretty broad.

What would you call vibe.d then, and what would be its competing products?

Re: Wikipedia Entry for Web Application Servers

vibe.d is an application framework, not an application server.
