- yoinked text, weird format, non-article -- Infrogmation
Copyvio [1] - Belongs on Wikipedia:Copyright problems -- Cyrius|✎ 18:28, May 9, 2004 (UTC)- keep. made into sensible stub. (full disclosure: I had nothing to do with creating this article in the first place, but I am a former employee of SpeechWorks, which techincally, isn't even a company anymore) Nohat 19:15, 2004 May 9 (UTC)
- The new version of the article looks okay to me. Keep now. -- Infrogmation 19:22, 9 May 2004 (UTC)
- SpeechWorks is gone, and Speech Works redirects to it. Unless the article at SpeechWorks is undeleted, Speech Works is a candidate for speedy deletion. --Ben Brockert 21:01, May 9, 2004 (UTC)
The user restored her non-standard version over the VfD header and the version that Nohat had changed it to. Since it's obvious that she has no interest in even discussing these changes, and since she insists on keeping her spam/copyvio version, I deleted it. I can restore it, if we want to restore it back to the non-copyvio version, but do we want to bother? She's on a very thin razor's edge as it is -- see what she did to Philips, which I reverted.

- I restored the deleted revisions, and reverted to my version. Please don't delete my work. Nohat 22:14, 2004 May 9 (UTC)
- Nohat's stub is worth keeping, but I still don't like the copyvio in the history. -- Cyrius|✎ 22:53, May 9, 2004 (UTC)
- Keep, but agree with Cyrius. IMO we're not entirely consistent in dealing with copyvios. Big issue. Andrewa 02:43, 10 May 2004 (UTC)
- Why not copy your text, Nohat, then delete the entry and recreate it? No coyvio in history, and the page stands. --Ben Brockert 03:04, May 10, 2004 (UTC)
- Nohat's stub is worth keeping, but I still don't like the copyvio in the history. -- Cyrius|✎ 22:53, May 9, 2004 (UTC)
- Nice new stub, and keep. If the above option works, then do it. Burgundavia 20:26, May 13, 2004 (UTC)
