[edit] U-commerce

U-commerce (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This article contains what appears to be OR, as well as lots of vauge claims and future predictions. The article is not referenced nor is the article written in an encyclopaedic tense, reading more like promotional material. I do not believe that this fails the noterity test as there do exist some papers by a particular university group on the subject, but I believe the concept to be equivalent to the comment of "e-commerce" just with embedded computing, and thus not worthy of its own page.

Also, i think it treads upon wiki is not a dictionary. Forgot that one. User A1 09:33, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Worse than "not a dictionary". This isn't really even an article about a word that anyone is likely to have heard of, and is some marketing person's Powerpoint slideshow condensed into a wikipedia page.Kww 12:33, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete on grounds that U-commerce is expanding the universe of neologisms.--Gavin Collins 13:15, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, possible speedy delete as advertising. As neologisms go, this is just clever enough to be annoying. Vacuous patent nonsense about a coming marketing utopia that you too can participate in for a sufficient consultancy fee. - Smerdis of Tlön 13:38, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
