page deletion query

Hi Herby, you recently deleted my article on Miracube citing that it is an advertisement. But, why are there listings of other companies like

SeeReal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SeeReal_Technologies

Philips Wowvx which is a product they sell. I would consider that advertising, wouldn't you? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WOW_VX

Zalman (which advertises thier company) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zalman

How can Pavonine Korea Inc. and Miracube 3D displays be listed? I must be going about it the wrong way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Craig 3D (talk • contribs) 07:45, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I hate "don't leave" messages

so I won't give you one. I'll just say thanks for all your help over the years. If you choose to pick up the tools again, they'll be waiting for you. Meanwhile have fun. ++Lar: t/c 22:43, 30 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Photo request

Hi! Is Exeter Airport convenient from where you are? If so, would you mind photographing the Flybe headquarters? Thanks WhisperToMe (talk) 00:08, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I saw the request :) If I am there I'll do it but I'm not sure when I'll be near enough. Cheers --Herby talk thyme 07:49, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Algarve

Actually I saw you on the Algarve page (via Siobhan Hansen) and left it alone because you seemed to have it covered. Are you sure the links are no good or is it COI? The one I followed was vaguely plausible at a glance.--BozMo talk 15:16, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

ok understood best wishes--BozMo talk 15:37, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please use the Algarve discussion page to discuss this matter instead of starting a add/remove links war. If you feel they should be remove use real arguments instead of just claiming they are not within policy, which would be untrue. I await you on the discussion page. --Xaman79 (talk) 16:07, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pleased refrain from removing the links which have been for years on this article while this is being discussed or you may be blocked from editing. --Xaman79 (talk) 16:34, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Saint-Savin, Hautes-Pyrénées

Updated DYK query On September 30, 2009, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Saint-Savin, Hautes-Pyrénées, which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits your article got while on the front page (here's how) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

I recently noticed that you deleted a few links of mine to articles on ISO and ANSI paper sizes, as well as a comparison of Labelflash and LightScribe technologies. Please state your reasons. I'm at a complete loss. For example, the comparison of Labelflash and LightScribe technologies is one of the only recent comparisons of two popular products. There is information there that won't be found in other comparisons conducted closer to the release of the products. The paper size article has some tips that you also won't find anywhere else, as well as good diagrams comparing ISO and ANSI sizes. Sure, these articles are on a company's website, but they are excellent articles and in no way promote any product. There are plenty of decent, neutral articles there, and I do not see why they aren't "Wikipedia material". Your turn. And please, in the future, bring issues like this up on the discussion page. I noticed that you didn't delete other links that I put up (to tomshardware, for example, another company). Does not add up to me. User:MacMan77

Fairly straightforward. Your only contributions to Wikipedia have been to add these links. That suggests to me that you may be seeking to publicise this website. Please take a good look at WP:EN. Thanks --Herby talk thyme 13:03, 12 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You only deleted links to BeLight Software and somehow overlooked Tom's Hardware, another commercial site. Also, many of the existing links are links to commercial websites that also, like BeLight Software, have some helpful articles on the sites (http://www.printindustry.com and http://www.inkjetart.com). The links that I provided weren't at all promotional, and the information there is useful. You won't find a comparison and explanation of LightScribe and Labelflash from the past two or so years. The article on paper size provided plenty of good diagrams that help people visually understand the Therefore I have reverted the edits that removed the links. If you wish to remove them, I request that we take this to the discussion page of each article and let the overall community decide. Thanks. MacMan77 (talk)
