 * 1) Please do not remove Wikipedia maintainance templates without satisfying the criteria they point out. For example, do not remove notability tags without satisfying the notability policies. Also, do not raise your links to the top of lists, as that is considered spam. Your edits indicate a clear conflict of interest in PrivacyView-related articles. Your behavior can be considered vandalism and repeated violations will result in being blocked from editing. -- intgr 17:47, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

I removed notability tags since I put the company's homepage as a reference. The notability requirement seems to have a flaw in the definition when it comes to areas such as this. I use the company's services and know that the homepage given is their source of reference and credibility. As written for an encyclopedia, there is no better notability source then the ACTUAL person/thing the article is written for. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AKA Tank Wilson (talk • contribs)


 * Wrong. The notability policy for software states "Software applications are products, and fall under Notability (companies and corporations)."
 * The latter explicitly states:
 * A company, corporation, organization, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works, the source of which is both:
 * independent of the company, corporation, organization or group itself, or of the product's or service's manufacturer or vendor, and
 * reliable.
 * The same is also stated, although in a different formulation, by the main notability policy, in the section The primary notability criterion. The next time you think you have found a loophole in Wikipedia policies, make sure that you have carefully read them. -- intgr 17:55, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Alright, thanks for the clarification. I did not think I found a loophole first of all. And secondly, you sir, are an asshole. I did/said nothing to provoke the hostile tone of your response. I answered why I removed the notability tag and what reasoning I had behind it, which was because "an enclyopedia..."-- AKA Tank Wilson


 * I am sorry if I came off as hostile, that was not my intention. Per WP:AGF, I will hereby accept your title of being an "asshole". Have a nice day. :) -- intgr 17:34, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
