If you look around I am actually trying to organise a reorganization of the article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Grid_computing/Draft_Revision , where, you'll notice, I earlier also gave my affiliation to try and avoid accusations of bias, or at least let others help me avoid them. If you want to change the article, help us write something better and then persuade people it should be implemented over the current article (i would change it in place but i feel it needs to many alterations and i didn't want to just start unilaterally changing the whole thread of the current article, hence i started the sub page for a place where people could try something new). To use wikipedia cliche's, be bold, sure, but please tryu for a consensus approach, and look carefully at what you delete. [[User:Ora|ora]] 23:47, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Revision as of 23:47, 24 May 2006

Your mass text removal from Grid Computing was uncalled for. Please discuss such major changes, and look at the comment i left on the Grid Computing discussion page. The spam tag at the top of the article was about commercial links, not selectively removing some opinions but not others ora 13:06, 18 May 2006 (UTC).[reply]
