Istory
A vanity article advertising a service which the creator is a part of. The creator of the article is warning others not to edit the article without their permission. --Tachyon01 4 March 2006 0200 UTC.
 * Comment - I'm sorry, I am new to Wikipedia and didn't know that this was against the rules. I will immediatly change both of my pages [iStory and Wikipedia:iStory] and get rid of this. I'm sorry about this, and it wont happen again -- Jazzer2
 * Comment - iStory +iPod gives 170,000 Google hits, so it's a legitimate piece of software, but the quality of this article is atrocious. -- Imban 02:07, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep and clean up. I'm going to remove that ridiculous "warning."   dbtfz talk 03:07, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: Did anyone notice that the same author also created Istory? What the heck is that?  I've never seen someone create something in the Wikipedia namespace - is that kosher?  —Wknight94 (talk) 03:26, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep and Cleanup perhaps an attention tag would be in order. j o s h  b u d d y talk 06:32, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, cleanup, remove ownership. I've done a little bit of the cleanup and removal of some blatant advertising. It still needs a lot of work. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 07:10, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as per nn--Vercalos 07:23, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete this memory-gobbling advertisement. Brian G. Crawford 15:49, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak delete I rewrote the article to sound less like an ad, but I couldn't do that great a job, since I don't know anything about the subject. It still doesn't provide context very well, and the article seems more focused on the programs that create iStories (iStorys?) rather than the iStory itself. I can't vote to keep this unless it's rewritten to be more clear to let me know why it needs to be kept. Are Jazzer2 and Jazzer3 the same person?  Pagra shtak  16:29, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry* Thanks for all the editing guys, I'm still new here. And yes, Jazzer3 was me, I forgot that my username was Jazzer2 [I registered as Jazzer3 somewhere and I guess it wasn't here], so sorry about the mishalf. Jazzer2 17:29, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

 * By the way Being new, I don't know how to send messages, and can't figure out how, so I can't reply to any of your guys messages. Could anyone advise me on how to do this? Jazzer2 23:06, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: The easiest way is to click on someone's user name, click the Discussion tab at the top of their page, and click + to add a new message. You can also enter User talk:username into the search box and click Go. Stifle 17:46, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
