Disclosure and title of article

[edit]

This is a brief note to explain that I am the author of this article and I have a potential conflict of interest with Huawei as a topic. When writing the article I have been mindful of Wikipedia's guidelines and aimed to be as neutral as I am able. Also, before the article was created, I invited other editors to review it in my userspace and the article was made live by an editor responding to my requests for feedback. If there is any non-neutral POV in the article, I would invite other editors to discuss it here, or make the necessary edits.

Since I did not move the article live myself, there has been an error in the disambiguation of the article. I do not think that the title should be "E5 (phone)" as it is a Wi-Fi device, not a model of phone. I'd like to request that the title be amended to reflect this, either to "Huawei E5" or "E5 (device)". Thank you. --Bouteloua (talk) 22:49, 25 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I understand - and accept, yes, 'phone' is incorrect. I'm not sure which is the best term; I'd be happy with either of those suggestions. I'd avoid "E5 (MiFi" simply because I don't think most people know what it is. If I had to choose, I'd go with "E5 (device)", I think. Chzz  ►  01:03, 26 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Chzz, thank you for the reply here. I have been looking into the guidelines on naming articles and I think that since the main goal is to provide a precise name, it would be best to use "Huawei E5" in order to properly distinguish the E5 from other electronic devices (both now and in the future) named E5. Also, it seems common for articles on electronic devices and phones to be named using the company name and model name. For example, I see on the E5 disambiguation page that the article for Nokia's E5 phone is titled "Nokia E5". If this seems reasonable to you, please can you make the change? Thank you. --Bouteloua (talk) 14:47, 26 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I hope you don't mind, but I have now made this change. I am open to discussing it if there are any objections, but I hope you agree my reasoning is sound. Thank you. --Bouteloua (talk) 20:03, 30 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
