Removed comment[edit]

I removed the following from the See Also section:

Now he's using sites such as http://advertising.voddo.cn/ where he claims: "NEBC Founder Ranked as The #1 Broadcast Emailer in The World by Wikipedia; The World's Largest Online Encyclopedia. " with a picture of a trophy.

This is nothing more than a spammer.

Sourcing[edit]

Most of this article is subjection to immediate removal as it does not comply with our biographies of living persons policy. Sources are urgently needed, and not to the web archive of geocities.com, please.--Dhartung | Talk 11:18, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What a bastard. A notable one, though, so I suggest keep it, removing unreferenced material. Tranzid 12:13, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dharting and Tranzid Sources of information on Robert Soloway are limited, its a subject the journalists do not really understand. Most of the coverage noted comes from the government press release on the date of his arrest and nothing else.

If you only want press releases from proper newspapers then i wish you good luck with your fair and balanced efforts.--Bananasfalklands 21:25, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Check out the date on Dhartung's comment. It was on 31 May, the date that this article was started. I agreed with Dhartung's comments, and I rewrote most of the article that day because the article was very bad. Royalbroil 02:24, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Royalbroil, The Soloway article existed long before 31 May 2006, remember that while Soloway 'thought' he was a Company for a long time before it became an entry about a single human being. Prior to getting famous on the 31st May 2007 only a very few non journalist people did 'research' into this area. Most of that research is licensed under a creative commons attribute license too.

This item might have been 'bad', but it now contains zero information. Bananasfalklands 10:03, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
