[edit] Mediashout

WikiPedia policiy: Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not

Advertising. Articles about companies and products are fine if they are written in an objective and unbiased style. Furthermore, all article topics must be third-party verifiable, so articles about very small "garage" companies are not likely to be acceptable. External links to commercial organizations are acceptable if they can serve to identify major corporations associated with a topic (see finishing school for an example). Please note Wikipedia does not endorse any businesses and it does not set up affiliate programs. Alancookie 22:12, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

• Comment, there was a typo in the article title in the afd page, fixed now. - Bobet 23:59, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom DrIdiot 23:59, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
• Have rewritten the article to be more objective and unbiased (IE removed about half of it!) However, I think as it stands it is now a valid article, which as a practicing Christian I can see ministers etc. looking up. I vote Keep as per my rewrite (as long as thats not covered in any vanity policy!!! *G*) Jcuk 17:07, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
• Weak delete, currently unverifiable. Stifle 23:54, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - not notable, made by a company that probably fails WP:CORP horribly. -- Thesquire (talk - contribs) 07:38, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
• Comment, the rewrite on 7 Jan 2006 began to clean this page up and make it more of what I would have expected...less advertisement and more neutral and objective. I created a worship presentation program page to represent the topic of these types of programs and linked MediaShout's company webpage in the external links. Alancookie 05:37, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

• Keep with cleanup tag. 46k google. although the article is currently about Corporation MediaShout 2.5 rather than Mediashout itself -- Astrokey44|talk 05:25, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
• Comment From what I can tell the product is called MediaShout, but the company is MediaComplete, so it still needs cleanup/clarification Alancookie 10:01, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as advertising, also most of the Google results are not unique. -- Kjkolb 13:31, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to the topic worship presentation program which describes this genre of software along with external links to various software, including MediaShout. This was my solution after putting some thought into it, but I'm only making this suggestion if it would be appropriate Alancookie 06:08, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
• I am the media coordinator at our church, and we use Mediashout in our worship services. I vote Keep, as I rely on Wikipedia for anything I think of!!! Also, I don't quite think this is anything to do with the company. Probably someone who had no idea about the wiki's standards, and thought Wikipedia was some kind of "copy 'n paste" place. But can't we fix it instead of DELETE IT??? --66.82.9.82 23:12, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
