Template:Non-free Apple screenshot (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Appears to be a copy of {{Non-free Microsoft screenshot}} with "Apple" substituted for "Microsoft." The apple.com pages cited give no evidence that Apple gives the same blanket permission for use of screenshots that Microsoft does. Trivialist (talk) 13:10, 6 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Template without parent and no logical use. The Banner talk 00:09, 6 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment appears to be very useful in detecting COI editing. Josh Parris 00:32, 6 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I would say this template unambiguously misrepresents established policy. I was hoping for a TFD when I saw it yesterday. –anemone projectors– 09:53, 6 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Misrepresents policy? It doesn't say anything about any policy. Ego White Tray (talk) 03:15, 7 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This edit was made shortly after that comment, presumably to demonstrate the template was misrepresenting policy by its example —PC-XT+ 09:08, 7 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I mean the template goes against Wikipedia policy, not that there's some kind of "James Grant Management" policy being misrepresented in the template. There is no article for the subject of the template, and it doesn't really serve any purpose other than to possibly attempt to promote the organisation. I suspect that the user who created the template works for them. –anemone projectors– 14:50, 7 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for lack of supporting article, or much of a description in transcluding articles, which makes me wonder what this thing is... —PC-XT+ 01:45, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This thing is probably pure conflict of interest. I asked the user why he created it, and suspected that he works for James Grant Management, and he conveniently archived his talk page without answering. –anemone projectors– 09:33, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as I now have this list in my userspace for recent changes - time for me to make up some charts, yes? Josh Parris 10:22, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete. A list of clients of a non-notable agency. Nothing encyclopedic about this. WP:PROMOTION, WP:DIRECTORY, etc, etc. --Rob Sinden (talk) 12:37, 13 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
