Your mass text removal from Grid Computing was uncalled for. Please discuss such major changes, and look at the comment i left on the Grid Computing discussion page. The spam tag at the top of the article was about commercial links, not selectively removing some opinions but not others ora 13:06, 18 May 2006 (UTC).Reply

Ok, I saw your message on my user page. I actually _don't_ think SETI@home is a Grid, and don't think it should really be in that article, but i would like to convince people of that through _consensus_ building not blanking. I certainly don't think they invented Grid computing. If you went and looked, you'd find I didn't actually write any of that, admittedly non-ideal material, i just reverted what amounted to section blanking, as unacceptable as spam around here. If you want my opinion, the other removal of some of the dodgy commercial linkspam was certainly valid, notice I didn't revert that. That said SETI@home is clearly is a key part of the distributed computing world, which while you _and I_ feel should be somewhere else, should not just be deleted out of hand. In the current Grid world, individual projects are key (due to the large amount of work funded by governments through a huge number of projects) ,and should be mentioned. If you want to hassle me then hassle me for the way i cover the project I work for EGEE, you deleted reference to it and LCG, which while projects and so clearly not worth covering according to you, they run between them what is as far as I know (and i welcome refutations) the largest multi-domain Grid in the world, a key player in the big fora such as GGF, the main developer of components like VOMS, etc etc.
If you look around I am actually trying to organise a reorganization of the article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Grid_computing/Draft_Revision , where, you'll notice, I earlier also gave my affiliation to try and avoid accusations of bias, or at least let others help me avoid them. If you want to change the article, help us write something better and then persuade people it should be implemented over the current article (i would change it in place but i feel it needs to many alterations and i didn't want to just start unilaterally changing the whole thread of the current article, hence i started the sub page for a place where people could try something new). To use wikipedia cliche's, be bold, sure, but please tryu for a consensus approach, and look carefully at what you delete. ora 23:47, 24 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Invisionix Roaming System Remote (IRSR)

edit

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Invisionix Roaming System Remote (IRSR), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Invisionix Roaming System Remote (IRSR). If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Speedy deletion of Invisionix

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Invisionix requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company or corporation, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. TNX-Man 16:14, 2 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Please refrain

edit

Please refrain from changing Palestinian militant to terrorist. Many people would consider the Israeli government to be a terrorist organization but at Wikipedia, we don't accept such labeling. --Falastine fee Qalby (talk) 20:38, 10 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
