Engineering Learning Wiki

It seems that Tangient LLC (apparently the sponsor of ELW, correct this if necessary) is a normal, commercial business (again, correct this if necessary). Nothing wrong with business but it would be wrong for Wikipedia to serve as a conduit for traffic to Tangient's wikis. Cheers. -- Iterator12n ^Talk 20:54, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Also note that other editors - Mdd and User A1 - have take similar removal actions. -- Iterator12n ^Talk 21:08, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi ... Rich Hoeg here answering your two questions. Tangient LLC is the not the sponsor of the Engineering Learning Wiki, I am! I actually paid Tangient LLC $50 (per annum) to gain more services via their wiki service, and insure that they could not post advertisements on my individual wiki space. Just like individuals on the web who need various services for blogs, etc, I wanted to create a wiki which supports engineering education. If you Google "engineering wiki" you'll find there is not any resource like this content. I believe in providing free access to these kinds of service, and am willing to put my money where my mouth is! While I understand why you might not want a link to Tangient, it would have cost me far more money to rent server space and install my own version of Media Wiki. Essentially they are just a web hosting service.

Thanks for taking the time to ask your questions —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.73.182.38 (talk) 22:58, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've asked Mdd and User A1 for second opinions. Cheers. -- Iterator12n ^Talk 03:44, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
