article was spam. I feel that the replacement article he made fits the criteria for deletion. You appear to be personalizing much of this, and accuse me of the same. Where's a threat, veiled or otherwise, other than the deletion process itself? Meanwhile four editors have personally attacked me. You're the only one that has made any effort to discuss the matters at all (which I do appreciate). I wish that I could believe you're unaware of your own insults toward me. How about you not telling me that you think that is another major oversight on my part too? --

organisation that I refer to is a non profit making organisation dedicated to helping the disabled to access ICT. A bit like the RNIB but aimed at a wider audience. They work closely with major players in the IT industry and the media to extend the help available to the disabled. Why does this constitute 'blatant self promotion'. I see references to companies making assistive technology, yet this is not deemed as advertising. I'm confused. (The above comment from

I guess it's futile to get you to stop attacking me, though I do appreciate this dialog at least. Sorry that you feel I'm not helping them. Perhaps you can do so instead, and do so without attacking me in the process. I apologized for suggesting that they might be sockpuppets. DBOLTSON's original

The trouble is you're not helping the editors (KineticScientist and DBOLTSON). You're repetively insulting them, calling them sockpuppets, spammers, and haranguing them with the threat of article deletion.

Hello Ronz. I'm not clear why the

Stephen Barrett Room" does not mean that it does any of the above. It also clearly is used to sell products, i.e books.

Since there is a response from
Osmanagich's team, it's about as well documented as anything else. It could be confirmed through FENA or the researchers if necessary. The response is irrelevant to it being cited as an alternative interpretation.

How so? I think the article should be deleted, but I'm willing to help editors resolve the problems with it. Still, I think what I wrote from the beginning: the article should be deleted and a new one should be written using valid sources.
