BozMo,
Thanks for the feedback. I will use the talk page in the future for additions. I do make a diligent effort not to promote or advertise GMI with additions. An editor that goes by Dcooper had input on taming promotional language on this page when it was first created. I originally left out articles from news agencies because I thought it was "bragging" or promotional. Let me know if changes are required for future additions. Take care.

Welcome to The Conspiracy

Following up your note on WP:AN, you indeed stand among the "accused" as shown here. We gather at midnight to burn black candles around a NEC SX6. Raymond Arritt 15:46, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. You are welcome to improve the article. You are correct: it is emotionally difficult stuff. ←Humus sapiens 00:55, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Assistance in Speedy Deletion of Kriya Yoga (disambiguation)

Sir, may I please request your help in the speedy deletion of Kriya Yoga (disambiguation)? It is unecessary because a disambiguation page for Kriya Yoga already exists as Kriya. Thanks so much. - Watchtower Sentinel 23:48, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

I suspect this user is one of many socks of the indef. blocked user Hamsacharya_duh (talk · contribs). See my username and you can put 2 and 2 together :) ... --Hamsacharya dan 02:50, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Anyway speedy deletion doesn't quite work like this. If you tag an article and admin will review it. --BozMo talk 08:34, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Yes sir, it was properly tagged before I solicited your assistance. As a result the redundant disambiguation has now been transformed into a redirect by another Admin. I am now moving for the deletion of its Talk Page please see talk:Kriya_Yoga_(disambiguation). Thank you! - Watchtower Sentinel 10:35, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Spam

BozMo, unless I hear otherwise, I'm thinking that it may be most conducive to report my spam findings to you on your Talk page. I appreciate that you're someone who will consider the facts, even if you suspect an ulterior motive. Signing off for now, this is The SpamWatcher 13:50, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

BozMo, I can't put my finger on it, but there's something very wrong about Roy Morgan Research. Maybe it's just the fact that the article contains such unsourced, advertising fluff gems like: "Roy Morgan Research is a truly international market research company and the provider of the world’s most extensive and only true single source survey." Even if that were important, what does it even mean to be "most extensive" and "single source", if you're a survey? Then there's: "Roy Morgan Single Source is thorough, accurate, and provides comprehensive, directly applicable information...". And: "Roy Morgan Research is able to employ the most appropriate methodology to meet the requirements of each study". This is an advertisement, not even attempting to disguise itself as an encyclopedia article. At least, that's the conclusion of The SpamWatcher 04:00, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
I think that Segment Y has a very suspicious edit history. User Asish.m.j creates the article in late July, then forgets to sign in again in early August (single-purpose account). No claim of notability or outside sources. That smells fishy to The SpamWatcher 04:07, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
Do you think that John Mckeever should be making these edits to the article about his own company? The information is helpful, but how much is Misplaced Pages NOT supposed to be a phone directory? Who's always finding the spam others overlook? It's The SpamWatcher 04:19, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
You've got to bust Dittberner Associates. Why? Look carefully at the edits of this anon IP, especially those about Dittberner and IPTV. Spammity spam spam, unearthed by The SpamWatcher 04:24, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages CD Selection

Hi BozMo, Thanks for your note on my talk page. I had a quick look (will check it in more details later). I was wondering why all footnotes are removed in these articles?

Anyways, I, and many other wikipedians, have worked a lot on Islam article to raise it to FA status. I think the new version is significantly better than its previous version.

I also rewrote the article on Isaac. It is now a GA article. I think it might be worth adding.

I'll check with other articles later. Cheers, --Aminz 19:41, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply. I agree with you. --Aminz 21:05, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

I've looked through it a bit. There don't seem to be any controversial articles on Islam on there, fortunately. A neat (uncontroversial) one to add would be Mukataba. It's a thorough article on an obscure topic. Also, a good person to ask about this (better than me) would be User:Beit Or. Arrow740 07:45, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
Not so "uncontroversial". --Aminz 07:48, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Removal of Global Market Insite page

Hi BozMo, I am taking steps to improve this page Global Market Insite. I was just made aware this page was marked for deletion today the 19th. I have not received any notification on my bio page or through e-mail. I did want some clarification on why it is marked for deletion.

What exactly does "no visible notability" mean? I did read the Misplaced Pages definitions but they are somewhat vague. Could you please review the sections that were added and let me know if this increases or meets the notable visibility issue? Many studies conducted with the research panels have significant results which governments, universities and news agencies rely upon worldwide. Thanks for any input.
