Speedy deletion of Nokia 6301
editA tag has been placed on Nokia 6301, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
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. PoinDexta1 | Talk to Me | 03:25, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia, I just marked your article for deletion. Right! Geez, I guess Nokia 6301 didn't get deleted. Itchy trigger finger Poindexta1 must now contemplate why his speedy deletion fatwah was quashed when issued so rapidly and surely in the first 90 seconds this article was on line. Maybe those two things have something in common. Tzsm98 (talk) 18:51, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
RE: Nokia 6301
editHello, to you too.
Well if you read the history log correctly, you would have seen that my second edit's summary clearly said "Wrong Tag!". You should read the logs, before concluding anything. As for the advertising tag, okay it was placed in error, my misjudgment; hey it happens.
As for the comment you left, these "tools" I use are in no way new to me I have had them for at least two years, take a look at a history log. And consider reading WP:NPA as your comment was leaning towards one of those. Instead, of [insert appropriate word here] other experienced editors, take a look around first.
Here is a quote; Comment on content, not on the contributor. PoinDexta1 | Talk to Me | 01:52, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
Here is a quote "look before you leap." It is not the newness of the tools but the application of them and the sagacity of their use that is important. Certainly, for example, face recognition software, is a wonderful tool. It might make a "bleep" every time it finds a face that is 65%+ matching in the database. Hopefully the sniper doesn't pull the trigger as soon as he or she hears the bleep. That's all I'm saying. I appreciate your apology. Tzsm98 (talk) 04:36, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
- I see your point now, I will be more careful in future. PoinDexta1 | Talk to Me | 01:13, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
Merger With 6300 Page
editI see there is a move afoot to merge the 6301 with the 6300 page. That is an excellent idea. Both look phones the same and there is no better way to highlight the functional differences than to put them both on the same page.
I'm not sure what sort of structure the merged article could take. I do know that one of the important aspects I am wanting to maintain is both the 6300 and the 6301 come in two variants so that in the end there were actually four models that were physically identical but electrically dissimilar in a variety of ways.
Wiki design is not something I've had time to grasp. I want to thank whoever it was who came in and re-ordered this article a month or so ago. I'm willing to provide information but if someone can assist with the formatting that will be super.
I'd like to see the 6300 authors chime in on this as well. Tzsm98 (talk) 22:52, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
