[edit] Floating Cellular Data

Floating Cellular Data (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Nomination: The article was created and almost exlusively maintained by the single-purpose account that created AirSage, and advertisementesque article for a company making this "technology". The technology does not get mentioned in the journals "ITS Journal - Intelligent Transportation Systems Journal"/"Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems" since 2002 (the name changed in 2004), "IEEE Proceedings: Intelligent Transport Systems" in 2006, "IEEE Vehicular Technology Magazine" in 2006, or the "IEEE transactions on intelligent transportation systems" since 2000. It does not appear in the U.S. DOT's National ITS Architecture Version 5.1 (latest, dated 10/20/2005). There is no google hit for "floating cellular data" that doesn't link back to Wikipedia. Accordingly, I nominate this article for deletion as a WP:V violation intended to assist in a WP:CORP violation for the article AirSage (which I am also nominating for deletion).

  • Delete The nominator is correct about WP:V; I'd say the article itself violates WP:NPOV and WP:N, and it reads like an advert with a tiny 'criticism' section tacked on to try to disguise the fact. --ais523 15:03, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
