[edit] DeviceNet

Original research and possible copyvio. Naconkantari 04:57, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy Delete as CSD A8[1]. I've tagged as such. Yanksox 05:00, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
• Agree. Speedy Delete per Yanksox. Informal tone and lack of context don't help much either. --Satori Son 05:05, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete As advert, list at WP:CP if kept. I don't see it as a speedy since the site does not seem to be a commercial content provider, as required by A8 criteria. --TeaDrinker 05:08, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

If you read the actual text of CSD A8[2], it appears this is the correct move. It's kind of a gray area, but from what I have learned anything that is copied and not used with permission is a copy-vio. Yanksox 05:17, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

• Thanks for the link. From A8 criteria, "Material is unquestionably copied from the website of a commercial content provider (e.g. encyclopedia, news service)" (Emphasis added). While this is certainly a copyvio, it is not from a commercial content provider in the usual sense. At least this is my understanding. --TeaDrinker 05:29, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

• This is more of an issue with policy, also keep in mind, that it is also an issue with the GFDL. Everything has to be released by the creator of the work. Thus, it actually is a copyright violation within the standards of Wikipedia. Yanksox 05:33, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy Delete as per above. Dionyseus 05:20, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
