There's an AfD running currently that is attempting to delete about 10 articles, which I feel is being somewhat railroaded by inexperienced WP editors. I'm definitely not asking anyone to come and vote the way I want you to vote, but I feel that this AfD would be quickly resolved if it got the attention of a few experienced editors. If you're up to it, have a look:

The gig is up, Wong -- the RCMP came riding in to expose you as an unrepentant canvasser: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...oldid=322371127 The question is, will it have the reverse effect from what he intended...? (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/unsure.gif) Personally, I would have to say that Bose speaker technology and design actually is innovative enough to deserve its own article (in addition to the one about the corporation), though maybe not separate articles for different models of speakers. Their headphone technology is supposed to be highly innovative too, but I have no personal knowledge of that (i.e., I haven't read anything about it in relevant audiophile publications - I just haven't been into that stuff much since my hearing started to deteriorate). So it would seem reasonable to me to distill the eight articles down to two, three at the most. Merging is usually a good compromise in these situations, isn't it? |

Yeah headphones are headphones to most people. Of everyone here, I'm pretty sure EricBarbour would be the one to ask about this. |

Most of the reasons for this are encompassed in this review. http://nyet.org/bose/ |

All the audiophiles I know would never use anything Bose. Most of the reasons for this are encompassed in this review. In the circles I run, an anti-endorsement of a product by audiophiles is grounds to consider using it. There's a reason we call them "audiophools", after all. (Ever burnt in a cable?)That said, Bose equipment is, well, not worth it. They're primarily for the Sharper Image market: spiffy looking box but no innards worth mentioning. Just like most of the other stuff Sharper Image sells. Getting back to the original topic: I'm sure the AfD was very important to the guy who started this thread. After all, those articles are his advertising campaign; if they're deleted he's going to have hell to pay back at the office. |

If so, he's running some sort of double blind or something as he appears to be arguing for deletion, he's the nom of that packet of articles. I think. |
