Stub

Hi Cole. I don't like having the stub mark everywhere. Well, it's done now, so we'll leave it. Better you ask next time before making such big changes. The problem I see is that many pages will never get updated, for example the old baseband version pages. Adding this stub mark will add no value to the page, nor help in getting the page extended. This might be good for Wikipedia, but not here. On other pages (like the AT+XNONCE) I don't see what should be missing there. If you know what is missing, please add it. --http 17:23, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

It looked too short is why. --Balloonhead66 17:31, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

Pictures

And for the new pictures for the stub pages, you probably just copied them from somewhere on the Internet. Please draw your own images instead of stealing it from somewhere. I'll delete them otherwise. We cannot have the official Apple logo just as a mark for general Apple issues. We might be able to use official product photos or the Apple logo on a page describing Apple, but nothing else. Treat images the same way as software. The jailbreak image probably comes from a scammers page, but it's still not yours, even if they do bad things. Geohot has enough trouble right now, so don't add copyrighted material to this wiki. I'll delete the images tomorrow if you haven't replaced them by then. Thanks. --http 17:23, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

Ok, i'll replace the copywrited images with Public domain. --Balloonhead66 17:31, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. (I had to laugh when I saw your new Apple!) --http 17:39, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

Please stop flooding the wiki with your changes about your vfdecrypt GUI (one of what like 200?) all the recent changes most of the time are from you about little menial stuff that i doubt most people care about, i had to stop following the wiki twitter account because it seemed like 99.99% of the updates were from you, all useless. PLEASE STOP --Nito 19:53, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Obviously keeping the wiki up to date is more important than inconveniencing anyone regarding their twitter feeds. The more accurate the wiki, the better. MuscleNerd 20:40, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Yes but when his updates are about stupid crap re: ANOTHER vfdecrypt GUI then i think it does a disservice to everyone who uses the wiki. --Nito 20:37, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

I think it's better not to judge *anyone's* contributions, large or small. This is a community of contributors. MuscleNerd 20:40, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
