Activating the VOIP Speaker on the Loox 720

Way too detailed. Wikipedia is not a "how to" manual DJ Clayworth 15:38, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Also: How to use the Audio In on the Loox 720 And: Fujitsu Siemens Loox 720 Detailed spec sheet without really saying what it is--part of the same "tech gadget users' group how to info collection"--not really encyclopedic--primary intent seems to be to capture users' guide in electronic form for posterity, which Wikipedia is NOT.

• Don't delete... it works for me!!!! 63.239.69.1 16:37, 2005 Jun 1 (according to edit history. Uncle G 03:21, 2005 Jun 2 (UTC))
• Delete as a how-to. Karol 15:43, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete how-to riddle with POV words like "exciting" and "poor" and ends with advertisement of the links mentioned. Mgm|^(talk) 18:59, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as a how-to. Non-encyclopedic. --Idont Havaname 19:30, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete or transwiki to wikibooks.--Fangz 21:09, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • The original author, after having been gently and politely pointed in the direction of wikibooks, had a rant, blanked, things left right and centre, and left, which is a shame, since this could have been the beginnings of a wikibook. A GFDL instruction manual? Wikibooks says "Bring it to us!". The original author even had the beginnings of the organization into chapters. Uncle G 03:21, 2005 Jun 2 (UTC)
• Delete entire 'How-to'/'gadget guide' series. Niteowlneils 22:51, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Is it just the three articles? Uncle G 03:21, 2005 Jun 2 (UTC)
• The original author is now leaving legal threats (e.g. [1]) on the user pages of people involved in undoing his blanking action. Might as well delete. Kelly Martin 16:45, Jun 5, 2005 (UTC)

• Speedy Delete WP is not a how-to, right? --Chiacomo 20:49, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, as per reasons above. - Mailer Diablo 22:26, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, however article covering whole Fujitsu Siemens Loox PDA series would be appropriate, since there is for example article which covers HP iPaq handhelds. --Lmach 20:04, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
