IPod Midget
Even the maker of the page agrees that this page should be deleted. It also may infringe on Apple's copyright of "iPod" ASG1022 23:41, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

1. Most pictures made of the Midget HAD TO HAVE COME FROM APPLE ADS, they were pre-construction idea pictures. 2. Everyone seems to think Apple is considering this product, which they are really not. It has only come to their attention through multiple letters. 3. Verifiability and citation is impossible, as Alegoo92 previously stated.
 * SAVE This article contains many contriversial subject matter in it:
 * Speedy delete Product is proposed to Apple by anonymous blogger, no evidence Apple is considering building it.  Fails verifiability and crystal ball. Thatcher131 16:06, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Now that I've read Verifiability the article fails under the "verifiability, not truth" clause. --TheKoG (talk|contribs) 16:10, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, unverifiable. Save the content on your hard drive locally and repost it should apple announce they're going to produce it Alegoo92. --W(t) 16:15, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wikipedia is no crystal ball (see WP:NOT). Secondly as rumour/speculation it automatically has problems with verifiability (see WP:V).--Blue520 16:17, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete Apple never considers outside proposals for products like this. This user is kidding himself if he believes otherwise (I'm an former Apple employee). Apple will not produce this product. This article is clear nonsense, non-notable and non-verifiable. Gwernol 16:17, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment All his images are copy-vio Apple advertising for existing iPod products (mainly the Nano). No information is given in the article about his alleged "proposed improvements" to existing Apple products. The only content of this article is paranoid ramblings by ASG and his sockpuppet.

 * Speedy Delete This is an extension of some blogger's fantasies, and it needs to be cleaned up way too much. --Walter Görlitz 16:21, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete crystal-ballism. Bucketsofg 17:20, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete is there a WP:Complete crystal bollocks? Eivindt@c 18:12, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete "This product can be considered 'imaginary', because it has yet to be invented! " ... that's some funny stuff. — Adrian~enwiki (talk) 19:45, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete If only there was an option faster than speedy delete... AlistairMcMillan 20:12, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, this goes beyond crystal ballism. I don't think Apple would call a product the 'Midget' anyway. -- Mithent 20:31, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 *  Speedy delete Delete UV unfortunately, it doesn't meet the speedy criteria, so just plain delete --rogerd 20:49, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * This was nominated for speedy deletion as patent nonsense. However, the classification of patent nonsense in WP:CSD requires the article to be unintelligible. I nominated it as a Prod. I vote to delete as unverifiable original research. Capitalistroadster 00:23, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete WP is WP:NOT a crystal ball. Mike (T C) [[Image:Star_of_life2.svg|20px]] 00:57, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * TERMINATE WITH EXTREME PREJUDICE - This is an attempt to hijack wikipedia for the purpose of reinforcing a potential future lawsuit. Apple will at some point produce a smaller ipod. At that point 'ASG' will claim the idea & design are his, and sue Apple. The article could then be used as potential evidence of his activities in submitting his ideas and designs to Apple. Delete and block any recreation. exolon 01:30, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not worthy of comment.  Dei z io  01:53, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * '''Delete for being delusional and unverifable. Much speculation, some of it probably defamatory towards Apple. --Midnighttonight 02:50, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - adios. --Khoikhoi 03:50, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per Capitalistroadster. --Hyphen5 23:31, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete and block user per Exolon/Djbrianuk - Paulus89 17:46, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Wiki is not a crystal ball...or a magic 8 ball for that matter. Nigelthefish 19:11, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
