I want you to stop the tracking cookies. I am a member of speedyclick and I resent your invasion of my privacy.

I'm confused on a number of levels by your remark. The speedyclick website, although it may have tracked cookies at one point, has been defunct for at least five years. Also, the editors of this wikipedia article did not necessarily have anything to do with the running of said website. Kevinmooney 05:10, 8 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Not POV, reliably sourced

edit

The article seems to have a strong anti-spam point of view. I don't like spam myself, but to me it's part of the price we pay for freedom of speech. Here are a couple of expressions from the article:

"...they have further exploited lax spam regulations" and "...current hard-core and unrepentant spammers"

That doesn't sound very neutral to me. Steve Dufour 00:48, 11 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

The Spamhaus Project as reliable source.

edit
There are many more sources if required, however I think the above should satisfy the criteria. Orsini 02:40, 14 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Third Opinion on The Spamhaus Project as reliable source.

edit
3O As the subject of email, spam and Spamhaus is directly in line with my profession, I am very familiar with the subject of Spamhaus as it relates to the email and spam industry. It is the general opinion of the industry that Steve Linford (and spamhaus) is an expert in the field of spam and email and would be considered a reliable source. There are many people and organizations that contest entries in the Spamhaus project, but that does not change its acceptance as a reliable source. Lsi john 01:19, 14 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
Thank you. As I had already left this on WP:3O, what the hey, it will be interesting to hear more comments. Smee 01:20, 14 May 2007 (UTC).Reply
Actually thats where I saw it. I was not sure how to mark it answered and was about to ask you. Note that my personal opinion of Spamhaus is vastly different than my 3O here, but my POV was not requested and thus not given. Lsi john 01:21, 14 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
Oh. Well in that case, thank you again. You can simply remove the entry itself that I had initially put at WP:3O, and include in your edit summary something like: Removed Speedyclick.com, third opinion given, The Spamhaus Project as reliable source. FIVE Remain.. Thanks again for your help, and polite demeanor on this issue. Smee 01:24, 14 May 2007 (UTC).Reply
Do bear in mind that listings at Spamhaus change frequently. What is listed one way today, may be removed or listed differently tomorrow. Though the odds that if someone has been listed as a ROKSO spammer that their entry will not be easily changed. Lsi john 01:29, 14 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for the clarification, and thanks again for your time. Smee 01:36, 14 May 2007 (UTC).Reply
Beat me to the third opinion; I completely agree. FYI, Smee, you might want to convert the reference to use the {{cite web}} template, which even more clearly indicates that the information was accessed on the particular date, and review What to do when a reference link "goes dead" if this seems likely. According to the ROKSO FAQ, if the ROKSO record is not updated for 6 months the information will no longer be publicly accessible from the Spamhaus site. Anomie 02:02, 14 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
Thank you, for the suggestions, they will definitely be taken into consideration. Yours, Smee 02:05, 14 May 2007 (UTC).Reply

Deletions

edit

Cirt, I'm curious about the reason for the deletion of the material that came with sources (I understand about removal of unsourced material). It seemed relevant -- so why delete it? Nomoskedasticity (talk) 21:48, 12 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
