This article was nominated for deletion on 21st August 2006. The result of the discussion was Keep.

[edit] Article Deletion objected

I am really opposed to the deletion of this article because the Motorola i860 and Motorola i930 have their own articles. There is room for improvement to make it less like an informational page. As you should know, it is far from complete, as nominating this article for deletion shouldn't be an option unless it's something that's really spam. Therefore, either debate with me here why the article should be deleted, or permit me to remove the deletion nomination box. — Vesther (U * T/R * CTD) 01:05, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

FYI I marked it for non-notability, not for spam. I will check out the i860 and i930 articles. If neither of those assert notability beyond "it's a phone you can use anywhere" I'll bundle them for AFD. If you want to keep this, I'd suggest finding a WP:RS that points out something significant about this model vis-a-vis telephones in general. —ptk✰fgs

Hmm, nope. The i860 asserts it was the first IDEN unit with a camera. The i930 asserts it was the first IDEN unit. I have no idea what IDEN is. I was just looking for the most uncontroversial chaff to shake out. I still don't see what sets this unit apart from the rest of the faceless masses. I guess that's more appropriate for the AFD though .—ptk✰fgs 02:05, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
