Copyright problems
Where did you get the text you introduced in the T9 article? If it is from other webpage, is not allowed in Wikipedia due to copyright concerns (see WP:C for proper use). As it is, that text is unencyclopedic - it doesn't add anything about the product, it reads as an advertisement. Diego Moya 00:24, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

I got your message about the T9 entry. I apologize if I did anything that is not "good" for Wikipedia. I was wondering if you might have any pointers that might help me make this entry more Wikipedia friendly. Sorry again for the problem. Thanks for you time. TylerWallace


 * Hi Tyler! Welcome to the Wikipedia editors. There's no need to apologize. A basic rule of Wikipedia is that any change may be reverted by anyone at any time, so you can experiment without fear of making mistakes. On the contrary, you're supposed to make as many edits as you will; if there is anything wrong with them, someone can correct them later.
 * If you're beginning with Wikipedia, it's better to only add some small changes at a time and see if they survive. You can follow the changes to a page by clicking on the "watch this page" option.
 * The preferred way to communicate between Wikipedians is through users' Talk Pages:




 * My own page is at User_talk:Diego_Moya, leave further comments there.


 * For the T9 article, add your own comments (not copy-pasted from a webpage) about the interface, the steps to use the technology, the predictive algorithms, the company... and include only informative images (but beware of possible copyright infringtments! read the related Copyright guidelines while uploading images.) A photo with three girls using a phone is not encyclopedic, a photo with an example of use of the T9 predictive technique is.


 * Be bold!
