[edit] Bandwidth Throttling

bad english, wrong category, simple view on something that isn't, wrong title, explanation wrong, nothing links to it. Biot 19:13, May 16, 2005 (UTC)


Keep. It needs cleanup, not deletion. It is a valid topic for an article, it just needs improved slightly. Perhaps some stuff could be pulled from the main Internet page which would help to reduce its horrendous size --Cynical 19:33, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

Weak Keep. If there was some other article that linked to it or if the article got cleaned up and expanded, then I'd say keep it for sure. The article in its present form isn't worth keeping, but since it's on the wikipedia a year from now it'll probably be a featured article :) -Cookiemobsta

  • Cleanup and expand, encyclopedic topic, title needs last word decapitalized. Substub barely touches on content but (at this writing, I haven't yet reviewed edit history) isn't nonsense nor false, just weak and incomplete. Barno 19:47, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, but needs expansion.--John 21:21, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and expand. Capitalistroadster 23:50, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete or Merge somewhere. This is more of a dict-def. I'm not even sure that the article as written is even correct. Vegaswikian 02:32, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and expand. Valid topic. Megan1967 04:31, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

I just noticed that there's an article called "Bandwidth throttling" (note the difference in capitalization), which is actually quite good. I should have spotted this before VfD'ing this page, and just redirected it instead; it's the obvious thing to do. I've gone ahead and done it. Sorry about the mess. - Biot 08:34, May 17, 2005 (UTC)
