Talk:Information Technology Channel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I nominated this page for rapid deletion with reason: Any article which consists only of attempts to correspond with the person or group named by its title. I still believe that's the case. I still don't understand why User:RHaworth reverted it back. It's all self-promotion only. Not talking about its factual correctness. For example: "Its viewers include tens of milions of Persian speakers around the world", the true number is almost surely less than ten millions. Or: "with the aim of teaching computer science", which is simply not true. "Microsoft Windows XP, IT News/Tech Talk, E-Commerce, Tech Zone, IT Books Review, Exchange Server 2003, Technology & Beyond and Microsoft Access" is not called computer science. I strongly believe this is a candidate for rapid deletion. Behdad 07:28, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

My misunderstading. The article does not fit in "attempts to correspond", but I still think it should be deleted. I't s not neutral, but pure self-promotion. It's almost surely started by the owner of the website/channel. Google test is not even possible, since "Information Technology Channel" is such a common phrase, used by various groups for similar purposes (IT training). Behdad 08:37, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Viewing figures

After this page was nominated on AfD I deleted a couple of things which seemed to mark the page as vanity: namely the picture and the viewing figure of 'tens of millions'. If that figure's true it desperately needs sourcing; if not it would be nice if the article could provide the real figure. --Last Malthusian 12:49, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
