How does that quote enhance the article? Unless there is some sort of analysis somewhere in the news its pretty much just advertising :-D Im not sure this should be published yet as it is in need of copyediting --Errant 13:22, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In fact I unpublished it, the article is slightly NPOV and sounds a little like an advert - there is no balance / criticism or anything like that. And that quote sticks with me :P --Errant 13:25, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
And no sources either! The only one is a blog with 2 lines of stuff!! Some of this might be good for shorts though. --Errant 13:33, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Counting the website itself, there are four sources for a six-sentence article (excluding the quote). Re: balance: The comparison to Google is accurate, as the one is user-based and the other is not, and comparison gives the reader a context of old vs. new. The cited court ruling is what it is.

No by balannce I mean is there any criticism of this scheme? I can see the obvious pitfall and IMO the reason why it will fail (leave something up to people and you will always get the worst ones skewing the results) but it would be nice to see that reported. Also there is no news source reporting the release with - for example - a quote fromn the Jatella people, which would be nice. Although I se now it is much better state thanks to fellow wikinews :D --Errant 16:32, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
By the way the comparison to google bit is good I like that :D --Errant 16:34, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
