OnStar Privacy

Welcome, but ... I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article OnStar Privacy, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:OnStar Privacy. If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

The following is from the talk page on Talk:OnStar Privacy.

I disagree with the proposal of this article being proposed for deletion. The website is notable on the issue. In fact, its one of the only sites I could locate that is dedicated to the privacy concerns of OnStar

http://auto.howstuffworks.com/onstar5.htm

About.com cited it as a resource for its article, if its deemed worthy of being used in as a source for an article by a publication of that size, I would say its notable enough. Just because other sites haven’t put articles up citing it doesn’t make the information any more or less valuable to Wikipedia users.

I created the sub for it rather than taking up more space in the main OnStar article. A smaller mention of it is part of the main article, and its quite relevant there. Its easy to say that articles should be deleted but you need to look at the whole picture, including other articles dependant upon the proposed article to be deleted. In this case, the other artical relies on this one. While this one may not be significant when viewed all by itself, I do think it adds to the value of the main one. --Shortfuse 20:55, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Internal Revenue Service

Dear fellow editor: I found some materials at the IRS web site regarding "Phishing" in connection with your edit to the above-referenced article. See the talk page for the article. I'll leave it to you as to what specifically if anything you think should be added to the article. Yours, Famspear 18:51, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Its back up now. Shortfuse 03:30, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

UPS hubs

The UPS hubs article I created to clean up the main UPS article has gotten hit by a few templates, including a deletion proposal under WP:NOR and collection of links. I'm a bit new at this, and would greatly appreciate any help you could offer! Thanks. Adamkik 04:35, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

I killed the prod and so it wont be deleted unless they want to run it through the formal deletion process. I am getting ready to head out right atm, but I will look at how to address the other concerns this evening. --Shortfuse 14:53, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

the 9/11 removal of bias project

I wish you luck with this. It's a brave try, but I suspect it is doomed to failure. I looked at the aims and objectives and they seem to me to be wholly congruent with WP:AGF and total neutrality. As you can see from the deletion discussion I support your creation of this project, and hope it survives. Fiddle Faddle 15:50, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

I appreciate the support. Read your comments, know that I struggled to find a good name for it, and I decided against 9/11 Association because I didn’t want it to be confused with an actual organization outside of the Wikipedia. However, I agree the name wasn’t the best and I am open to any suggestions for a name change. And yes, it likely is doomed to fail but it can never hurt to try. --Shortfuse 18:16, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Remove names

I suggest you remove the names from that list at Wikipedia:Association of 9/11 All Sides Editors.--MONGO 18:08, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

We've already discussed this on the AfD page for this project. --Shortfuse 18:13, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

So you refuse to remove the names?--MONGO 18:20, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
