Talk:NET

From Technocracy Wiki

This is a copy of the deletion log of this article which was cut and pasted here by Andrew Wallace... the creator of this article and also the Director of NET. In other words... an editor here is writing about himself, and the group he controls which is seeking funds mostly by promoting a book that Andrew Wallace wrote and self published http:Disable link//www.lulu.com/content/750510. This article was deleted on the main English wikipedia site for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:VSCA among other things and also the other simple English wikipedia http://simple.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&type=delete&page=:Network_of_european_technocrats ... deleted again for the same reasons... commercial promotion of a non notable group of perhaps 6 active bloggers. Dr. Wallace or Isenhand as he is known as an editor here, and also on those sites... has used the avatar Isenhand also on the other wikipedia site... here is the deletion log. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Network_of_European_Technocrats I suggest that this article be nominated for deletion or quickly deleted. There is no connection between NET and the North American Technocracy movement other than that which NET has made up to promote themselves. Tbonepickensetc 02:38, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Let me add that the author of this article has now locked the pages of most of the articles being actively edited in the Technocracy wikia... against interested parties that would like to improve or debate information presentation.

Example... in this NET article written by the Director of Network of European Technocrats Andrew Wallace/Isenhand here claims The name Network of European Technocrats (or NET) refers to an organisation that promotes Technocracy within Europe as an alternative socioeconomic system for a sustainable future. The organisation is registered in Sweden (number 802431-9330) but has a membership base across Europe and accepts members from outside the continent.

Does this sound like an appeal for notability and money any one?

However... public information here under NET Accounts http://en.technocracynet.eu/index.php?option=com_docman&task=cat_view&gid=43&Itemid=143 tells us that Andrew Wallace has about 8 active bloggers that are paid members in the group he leads.. and that number of 8 includes himself in the count... so lets say 7 people are actual members. Is that notable? No one has written about them other than themselves? True. Is that notable? Is the presence on the internet of 8 active bloggers ... one of whom is promoting on the main article page Technocracy wiki, a self published book, notable? Is it true that all links to NET on the main English Wikipedia are black listed as spam because of the actions of Dr. Andrew Wallace and his group NET. Yes. As well as many other sites... of which I could list... but have elsewhere.

Is trying to tag his/this group to the movement of Technocracy Inc. in North America... really the point of what Isenhand has mostly written here in an attempt to ride the coat tails of a notable and highly influential group... a good exercise for providing good information, to people that may come here thinking to inform themselves? I think not. Are all the articles now pretty much protected by one editor spamming his own group and his own perspective that conforms to his self published book? That is the size of it.
