WikiProject Nortel


Per User:Gigs/Avaya_Pushers, I have identified this as a sham Wikiproject that is a front for mostly SPAs and sock/meatpuppets that edit to promote Avaya/Nortel products and Keep them at AfD regardless of notability, while deleting, tagging, and reducing coverage of Avaya competitors.

 * Delete per the detailed and careful findings that appear at the Avaya Pushers page. We got rid of the Article Rescue Squadron's template because it was seen as canvassing for a particular point of view on AFDs, and that was just an internal thing: it didn't appear to be related to anything off-wiki.  Seeking to influence lots of AFDs in order to promote a company is substantially worse, and the activities of this company's online employees will ensure that this page be useless for honeypot purposes.

 * Delete and all subpages, templates etc. related to this project. --Dirk Beetstra T  C 14:47, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete and all subpages per above. Stuff like this is somewhat concerning. I'm going to clean out User:Geek2003's userspace next. MER-C 01:58, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
