Hi all, I find this wiki entry to be no more than an add.  While I think adds are fine if they add value to the gumstix,  this one seems to be nothing more than a redirector to the company.  So this begs the question what is the acceptable level of add we will tolerate on the wiki? http://docwiki.gumstix.org/RFID Chuck --Alt-Boundary-16544.936560296-- --------------------------------- TV dinner still cooling?

It is interesting that most of his contributions to the wiki appear to be summary paragraphs cut-and-pasted from Wikipedia plus a link to his website/store... http://docwiki.gumstix.org/Special:Contributions/Gaotek On 4/4/07, chuck kamas <chu...@ya...> wrote: > > Hi all, > > I find this wiki entry to be no more than an add.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I will contact Gaotek and discuss this with them.

These pages may even have been created by some sort of an automated script, it appears. The company/user has not responded to my inquiry, so the wiki contributions by "gaotek" have been removed from our wiki as these wiki pages are not gumstix related.
