Talk:Jordan Goldberg

This page is obviously written by the person it's about, and should be deleted, as well as the page on his company.

Review needed
CEASE DELETING ITEMS OFF THE TALK PAGE. THAT IS NOT PERMITTED IN WIKIPEDIA Non notable CEO of a non notable start up internet company. Should be removed from wikipedia. Come back when the company and Goldberg are a proven success. Sorry but right now this is overblown 'Walter Mitty' type self publicity and spam 21stCenturyGreenstuff (talk) 16:55, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Review 'NOT' Needed
The page Jordan Goldberg is a link in the page I created for stickk.com, a site that I am a member off and is helping me in my personal weight loss goals. If you are not familiar with this site then I would suggest that you refrain from flagging articles and links for no reason. Please remove this flag from the link.--Familyguy78 (talk) 15:11, 9 July 2008 (UTC)


 * You seem to be struggling to comprehend what wikipedia is. It is an encyclopedia not a location to advertise an embryonic start up company. The original 'stickK' wiki entry was immediately nominated for speedy deletion and was deleted. Almost instantly the current entry was created with a slightly different name. Again it was immediately nominated for speedy deletion, however a wikipedia admin reprieved it to allow the entry a few weeks to establish notability. This 'Jordan Goldberg' entry, by your own admission is closely related to it. Both pages are being closely monitored for any improvements and a review will be carried out in the near future, so there is little point in railing against it. There are also questions over "sockpuppetry" to be examined. Almost all amendments and additions to both pages trace and track back to similar IPs and geographic locations which could be viewed as suspicious. Please be aware that I am NOT a wiki admin, just one of the thousands of lay editors that patrol through wikipedia searching for violations of policy. I am sure Mr Goldberg is a smashing chap, but that does not warrant a wikipedia entry until he becomes notable, as he probably will one day, self grandiosing people usually do eventually21stCenturyGreenstuff (talk) 15:53, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

The Oxford dictionary defines an encyclopedia as a book or set of books giving information on many subjects or on many aspects of one subject. If you need me to give you more definitions, I'll be glad to. Since you admit this is an encyclopedia and not an online advertising portal, both these entries are perfectly valid since they only convey information about a subject. There are plenty of similar entries in Wiki so give it a rest. It's a pity stickK.com isn't as popular in the UK as it is in the USA, you English could really use it.

Please refrain from flagging articles and let the admins do their job. I'm sure you have better things to do with your time.--76.26.153.109 (talk) 03:14, 10 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Sadly, no I don't have anything better to do with my time. Since becoming disabled and unable to work I really have nothing better to do than sit in front of my computer and spend eighteen hours a day 'working' on wikipedia. Actually I have far less problem with the notability of the stickK.com entry than I do with the Goldberg one. In Goldberg we have a man who has only just left college, by his own admission dropped out of his MBA programme, running a one horse and yet far from successful start up business in a room above a bar, has a mention in a 'school' magazine and a photograph of himself modelling a new suit in a men's magazine. That makes for highly questionable notability my friend. Instead of making insulting comments about the English why not instead steer your energies into improving the article with something a tad more tangible? 21stCenturyGreenstuff (talk) 10:07, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
