Naas (disambiguation)

edit

I have reverted your recent changes to the above page. The manual of style for disambiguation pages is clear - one blue link per entry and no piping ("|"). Thanks. – ukexpat (talk) 15:36, 4 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Network as a service

edit

Thanks for the messages. I have removed the advert tag, but I still think that there are notability issues. If you take a look at WP:RS you will see the kind of sources that are required to support notability - self-references (like Aepona's own website) and blogs are not considered reliable, so excluding those the only reference left is gsmworld. If the subject really is notable there must be some significant coverage in secondary sources, such as trade press etc. That's the kind of thing that will be required. Hope this helps. – ukexpat (talk) 15:08, 8 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Steve, you seem to be misunderstanding what a reliable source is and why they are needed. To support notability, the primary inclusion criterion, significant coverage in reliable sources is required. If you take a look at Wikipedia:RS#Types of sources, you will see the kind of source that is required -- coverage in secondary sources, principally scholarly works or the press, trade press is OK so long as it is a publication recognised within the industry for its accuracy etc. The coverage has to be non-trivial, so directory type listings, regurgitation of press releases and similar, don't count. I couldn't asses the grid.com references because the pages wouldn't load in any of my browsers. Hope this helps. – ukexpat (talk) 18:32, 10 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the message. I think you have enough sources - I have removed the tag.-ukexpat (talk) 15:34, 15 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Network as a service

Thanks for your understanding re: this article - take a copy now (you can put it in your userspace) so that if an when it achieves substantial notability we won't lose your work. Let me know if you need a hand writing compliant articles in future - for example, by writing articles under conflict in your user space and having them checked and moved to main space. -- samj inout 11:12, 12 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Reversions

edit

Note that this edit is problematic - I cited policies when removing references and you repeatedly reinserted them without explanation in the edit summaries. Beware of WP:3RR in future. -- samj inout 11:14, 12 April 2010 (UTC)Reply
