The author of the article has clearly made an effort to satisfy WP:CITE, but the topic of the article doesn't seem to satisfy WP:NOTE, which is certainly the more pertinent policy. Two references from a single entrepreneur isn't enough evidence of notability. Walton monarchist89 18:23, 21 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep Thank you for the feedback. I am relatively new to Wikipedia. I still think this is a notable quote that has influenced major discussions of development, economics, and ICTs role in developing countries. The phrase is used and discussed by Thomas L. Friedman on Page 360 of best-selling book The Lexis and the Olive Tree: Understanding Globalization, published in 2000.BangladeshScholar 09:10, 22 January 2007 (UTC) — BangladeshScholar (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic..

 * Do NOT Delete / Keep This phrase is now used by the United Nations and Telecommunications experts. It was used in July 2006 in the 53rd Meeting of the Study Group on Information Technology and Telecommunications. I think it should stay, especially considering how good the sources are. I checked them out. Did you? See: http://www.sdpi.org/training/53rd_meeting_of_study_group.htm.

 * Delete as non-notable quote. Tony Fox (arf!) 05:06, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: this is a non-notable slogan whose meaning is fairly obvious given some context. If kept, rename to a standard title (Connectivity is productivity) per WP:MOS. - Smerdis of Tlön 15:39, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
