Fair use rationale for Image:TTTech-logo-blue.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:TTTech-logo-blue.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Spam in TTEthernet[edit]

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on TTEthernet, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because TTEthernet is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting TTEthernet, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Speedy deletion of TTEthernet[edit]

Hello, I added the article about TTEthernet again, because I do not completely understand, why it is a reason for speedy deletion. TTEthernet is a new kind of Ethernet, as well as there are existing other variants like 10Mbit/s Ethernet, 100Mbit/s Ethernet and others, which are allowed to be explained..?

If the text sounds to much like an advertising, I would be pleased if you help me, changing the text in an appropriate way, instead of deleting it.

Thank you, --Gnalk (talk) 10:29, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The other articles on Ethernet standards (and the standards themselves) differ from TTEthernet in several significant ways. First, they describe established standards, and TTEthernet appears to be a recent innovation by a single company. This does not necessarily mean that an article for TTEthernet is not appropriate, but, like all Wikipedia articles, it must demonstrate notability (WP:N) via independent reliable sources (WP:RS). Unlike the other ethernet related articles, it does not. Lastly, the article is written from an advocacy position. You sound like you are trying to convince the reader why TTEthernet is good. Wikipedia articles should be written with a neutral point of view (WP:NPOV). gnfnrf (talk) 11:34, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of TTEthernet[edit]

A tag has been placed on TTEthernet, 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 the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ 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. gnfnrf (talk) 11:20, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Late welcome[edit]

Hello Gnalk, Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Wikipedia is no place for advertising products and services! There are some rules about this, so it is a good idea to study Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies), Wikipedia:Notability (web) and Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. --Kgfleischmann (talk) 13:04, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Gnfnrf, I think I finally managed to rewrite the article in a way, that is according to the wikipedia-philosophy. I uploaded it again and am looking forward to your feedback, whether that is ok now or not. Thanks for your good explanations, concerning the mistakes I made. --Gnalk (talk) 11:32, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Some problems with the TTEthernet article[edit]

I agree the article is somewhat better now, but there are some thinks to be mentioned:

Is my understanding correct, that TTEthernet extends existing Ethernet? If yes, some words should be said how this happens. Does it wrap Ethernet frames into own frames, does it use fields of the Ethernet frames or whatever else is true.
Are their any standadisation effort made
Are there patents

Hoping I helped, --Kgfleischmann (talk) 11:24, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Answers to the above stated questions by Kgfleischmann[edit]

TTEthernet sits on top of layer 2 OSI model and below layer 3. Therefore it can be seen as an extension service to existing Ethernet, which provides hard real-time and synchronization capabilities to Ethernet networks. Those services use standard Ethernet frames.
Standardisation is discussed with different industry organizations. The intention is to standardize those services for use in cross-industry applications.
Yes, there are patents held by TTTech Computertechnik AG and Honeywell.

Thanks for your comments and help. Shall I implement those answers into the article? --Gnalk (talk) 12:29, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
