|||
Last year or so I stumbled upon a futuristic 3d-virtual world online game that featured PODS as an integrated element of the game. My educated guess (I think they did disclose the information)is that the designers or hosts of the game were somehow partnered with the company and decided this would be an immersive advertising solution. I'm currently searching the web for the name of the game and a description of the PODS element of the game so that perhaps I may return and post it here. Unfortunately it may be painstaking for me because I do not currently have access to my bookmarks on my other pc where I most certainly have stored a reference to the game. IF anyone else knows of this feel free to post more information on that so theat the wiki can be updated with a section noting this. ie a "pop culture" or "featured in" section. It's just too progressive to leave out that kind of information.[[Special:Contributions/69.217.122.23|69.217.122.23]] ([[User talk:69.217.122.23|talk]]) 01:12, 25 October 2009 (UTC) |

PODS (company) → PODS — PODS is the registered name of the company. Similar companies do not use the (company) after their title. Twalters82 (talk) 14:18, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
- PODS → pods - The category for PODS could be shifted to pods allowing users to see other references to pods and leave the PODS for the company.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Twalters82 (talk • contribs) 14:18, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
- Keep as currently titled The PODS page is a Disambiguation page at the moment - how would you propose we deal with that page? Using pods (lower case) merely redirects to this page anyway. As there are at least 3 articles which would realistically use all-caps spelling (this company, Pipeline Open Data Standard and Palm OS Development Suite) which one would be the most notable which would deserve the PODS article? Originally this article was named PODS®, which I moved to the current title, as I didn't think that this company was more notable than the other uses. Both this company and Pipeline Open Data Standard have been around since 1998. I should point out, however, that Twalters82 who has started this discussion is the page creator. I feel that this company is no more notable than the other uses, and the PODS page should remain the disamb page. -- PhantomSteve (Contact Me, My Contribs) 16:54, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
- Keep as is. This article does not take precedence over a disambiguation page. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 21:31, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
- Do not move There is no primary topic for PODS. PODS should remain as the disambiguation page. ~~ GB fan ~~ talk 21:38, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
- Keep as is per above arguments. 「ɠu¹ɖяy」¤ • ¢ 21:41, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose And PODS should redirect to POD, not here. YeshuaDavid • Talk • 16:36, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose – PODS (company) is the name of the page, not the name of the company. Because "PODS" is ambiguous, the page name has a parenthetical disambiguator. This is normal. --Una Smith (talk) 05:38, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
- The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

User:Twalters82 Clearly has a Conflict of Interest by constantly treating this article as a form of advertising for his company. Once admins stamp on that then the edit war will be over. Pip Pip 86.139.84.237 (talk) 03:52, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Featured appearence of PODS in a 3d virtual world game.
Last year or so I stumbled upon a futuristic 3d-virtual world online game that featured PODS as an integrated element of the game. My educated guess (I think they did disclose the information)is that the designers or hosts of the game were somehow partnered with the company and decided this would be an immersive advertising solution. I'm currently searching the web for the name of the game and a description of the PODS element of the game so that perhaps I may return and post it here. Unfortunately it may be painstaking for me because I do not currently have access to my bookmarks on my other pc where I most certainly have stored a reference to the game. IF anyone else knows of this feel free to post more information on that so theat the wiki can be updated with a section noting this. ie a "pop culture" or "featured in" section. It's just too progressive to leave out that kind of information.69.217.122.23 (talk) 01:12, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
