[edit] Adder technology

Adder technology (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Company profile. Non-notable. Advertisement. Violates WP:SPAM OfficeGirl 06:23, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Was Speedy deleted per nom, re-created out of process, so re-opening the debate. Delete as a directory entry. Guy (Help!) 06:42, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Clearly notable company article in standard company article format. 23 year old technology company sells popular line of computer products all over the world, 60,000+ google hits. My recreation is just fine. Speedy deletion was done improperly and out of process, 4 hours after AFD nomination with no discussion, citing spam and notability even though the old article was already substantive, had an unambiguous assertion of notability, and was clearly not spam; nevertheless, this is a substantially modified version with sourcing, links, and a more encyclopedic tone.

    • The recreation was problematic because it restored some of the deleted article's text without restoring the deleted article's edit history. In other words, the article's edit history didn't preserve the article's previous versions and didn't document all of its authors. (This problem has since been fixed). --Muchness 16:38, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. As per Wikidemo above. This article is not intended to be spam in any way, purely a company article in standard company article format. Adder technology where a founding force behind the creation of the KVM industry. Shepperd 15:39, 12 September 2007

  • Keep, attested as the top European KVM vendor.[1] --Dhartung | Talk 06:30, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment I have moved the article to Adder Technology and cleaned it up, putting a key notability claim in the intro and adding others. --Dhartung | Talk 06:44, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Seems fine now and spells its main reason of notability within the introduction. Good work. User:Dimadick —Preceding signed but undated comment was added at 13:21, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - Easily passes WP:ORG now. --Тhε Rαnδom Eδιτor 19:24, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per the above, good references are provided too.--JForget 23:34, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
