[edit] Terapad
This Web site's notability is not asserted or proven. Edit history suggests vanity and/or spamming. Delete. --Nlu (talk) 12:32, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- Site is perfectly legit. Company in question provides a free service similar to other pages such as say, Typepad Keep. Stephantual 12:48, 4 January 2007 (UTC) — Stephantual (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

[edit] Message from the OP
Since is this going to be deleted anyway, let me tell you something: You people really do a good job at appearing on the payroll of big corporates. This is my real name, the company is real, we're not spamming, we're hardworking people just placing a NPOV page on wikipedia the same way you have 15 or 20 links to similar services. It's doing wikipedia a favor by adding content. Spam is the crap you get in your inbox title 'Viagra Free Free Free'. That's not us, capice? I take real offense being called a spammer. Talking about spam, what did those other services do to deserve being on Wikipedia? I'll probably never know - but I wasn't born yesterday, so next time, just give me the PO box to send the bribe to.

- Please don't overreact. You can read Wikipedia's definition of spamming as well as our policy on conflicts of interest. You should also take a look at our guidelines on notability particularly the notabilities of companies. This last link gives you the specific criteria we use to determine which companies are notable enough to warrant an article and which are not. If your company meets one or more of those criteria, please update the article to show that and it will likely be kept. Gwernol 13:18, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
