1800 PHONEHOME
Hello Pedro...I styled my 1800 PHONEHOME entry much like the 1800 REVERSE entry. I have been operational for a short time and have not attracted negative press. Is this what makes the 1800 REVERSE entry acceptable? If that has nothing to do with it would you please give me some hints as to how to style the entry.
Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gravestein123 (talk • contribs) 11:55, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
- They key thing is to establish notability. 1800 REVERSE seems to be notable when 1800 PHONEHOME isn't. The main problem however was that the phonehome article read more like an advert for the company than a description of why it is notable enough fo rinclusion in an encyclopedia. If you can find some independent third party reliable sources showing why 1800 PHONEHOME is important and notable, and make sure the article is fully neutral in tone then that would be fine.

Greetings
Hi Pedro, keeping well? As a courtesy, I am just informing you that I endeavour to operate an informal mentoring scheme not dissimilar to yours. While I rarely post on WT:RFA, I always have an understanding of its status quo among the community. I'd like to think that many are familiar with my cool and collected disposition among tricky subjects (I think my RFA is testiment to it), and it is something I look forward to actively extending to WP:RFA.

- Good luck with it. Alas my WP time is more limited than it used to be :( but if you need any help please feel free to tap me up. Pedro : Chat 12:21, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
