[edit] Comparison of email services and Comparison of webmail providers
Hi Independence, and welcome to wikipedia. At Talk:Comparison of email services, you said "Oh, stupid me! This page already exists: Comparison of webmail providers". Do you want Comparison of email services to redirect to Comparison of webmail providers? If so, and you need help with it, you can contact me on my user talk page. Aecis I'm too busy acting like I'm not naive. 21:53, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
- I think I managed to do a redirect on my own, but thanks for the tip/help! // Independence 14:54, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_free_shell_providers
I don't know either; what other articles are you referring to specifically? If they are just directories like this one was they should be deleted as well, but I'd have to look at the individual cases. The consensus at this AfD was pretty solid when you discount the votes from the likely sockpuppets saying "stays". Mind you, I was just the AfD closer, I don't know much about the shells or webmail providers; my decision was based on the WP:NOT policy and consensus rather than my opinion on the subject.--CĂșchullain t/c 20:38, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
- That article also looks sketchy to me; it looks like a directory of providers with advertisement-like comparisons of some of their features. But as I said my knowledge of this subject is very limited, I don't know if webmail providers are more notable than free shell providers, or if the article can be altered to fix it. I'll have to leave it in the hands of someone who knows more about it.--CĂșchullain t/c 21:39, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
