• Merge I would recommend that this be merged with the Apple iPod article. There's some information, but not enough for a separate article. Koryu Obihiro 21:55, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

This Article is not about ipod but about other electronics devices which support iPod docking. this article thus does not come under Apple iPod (iPod dock are not made by Apple). Rather this article need expention —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.118.108.254 (talk) 07:00, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

• Delete As people mentioned in the discussion page, the article is about things that, through the dock connector, support iPods. A mention in the "Accessories" subheader is appropriate, but anything beyond that goes into too much unnecessary detail. Butterfly0fdoom 17:00, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
• Merge or not - truncate but do not delete - in spite the article does not contain much information, it treats an important content: docking the ipod has become a defacto industry standard. Urgently needed and still missing is information about connector pins, interface standards or at least links to this information. The connectivity of ipods is comparable to parallel or serial PC connectors also referenced in wikipedia. --Pelo 16:53, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

If the iPod dock connector were an industry standard, all DMPs would support it. Yet only iPods and iPhones do. Therefore it is not an industry standard. As thus, the article should be Deleted'. If you want an article about the iPod Dock Connector, then make such an article divulging the technical data of the Dock Connector, not a poorly written article that has no main point whatsoever. There is no interface standard either, because it is PROPRIETARY. Hence DELETE. Butterfly0fdoom 06:32, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

• Merge - Shorten and merge into Ipod. --¤ The-G-Unit-฿oss ¤ 12:55, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
• Merge Does not warrant its own article. --Djsasso 17:03, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
• Merge Ipod docking is not a "craze" and not notable, but information would be useful in Ipod. I would prefer wireless music sharing using that other device on the market - now all I have to find is another person to share with.  :) T.--T3Smile 12:32, 28 October 2007 (UTC) * T3Smile (talk • contribs • logs) - Blocked as sockpuppet.

• Merge - Shorten and merge into Ipod. Not sufficiently notable for its won article. --SmokeyJoe 22:40, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Some information can be merged to Ipod. -- Magioladitis 12:01, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
