Talk:David Altounian

This page is a work in progress and all text within has been written by me in the past. The fact that the text shows up on other sites occurs because I have disseminated it to other sources. This can be verifiable through documentation with created-on dates dating before the websites listed as infringment.

Additionally this article is complementary to an established article titled Motion Computing for which David Altounian is the CEO. This is no different than Michael Dell or Steve Jobs' pages.

Well, actually, yes, it is different. The articles about Michael Dell and Steven Jobs have large numbers of arm's-length third-party expert sources writing in reputable publications and stating that these individuals are notable. The article I see has no such sources and is likely to be deleted in the very near future unless such references are provided. (Incidentally, "X has an article so Y should have an article" is not considered a useful argument on Wikipedia; all articles are assessed in and of themselves. See the policy at this page for details.) This requirement for reliable sources has nothing to do with the assertion of copyright, which is another problem entirely -- that has to also be solved by the article's creator, and there may also be issues of conflict of interest which must be addressed. I would recommend looking at some very basic material found here and here about the basic elements that go into all Wikipedia articles before proceeding further.

I agree with the above, and would add that while there are Internet sites on which you are welcome to post your resume, Wikipedia is not one of those. We are an encyclopedia, and therefore welcome objective articles about notable topics. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 21:38, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Redirected to Motion Computing barring a claim to notability beyond simply being the CEO. The current version of the article is also only sourced to the company's webpage. Hairhorn (talk) 18:39, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
