[edit] lphant on the Comparison of eDonkey software

Before undoing my edit, please consider the following:

  • the same reasoning applied for the removal of the original edonkey client
  • the original edonkey client is still functional and can be downloaded from many sites
  • even if lphant remained on the comparison page, the current state of the lphant.com website and more importantly the current state of the wikipedia article on lphant would confuse the reader to download the new version

I respect your efforts in the lphant article, but I still think you haven't managed to disambiguate between the original 3.51 version and the fake discordia version.

If however, you insist on reverting back, please add the word "original" before "lphant" as well as a ref tag to make clear that you refer to the original 3.51 and not the client offered at the lphant.com site (without linking to lphant.com)

Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.92.150.66 (talk) 07:12, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] File sharing

Hi there. User:Deathmolor has been trying to add a program called 'linker' to the timeline, along with the claim that it, and not napster, was the first real peer to peer file sharing program.[1] He's also been removing sources for the statement that napster was first. I don't think that this is correct, and on the talk page he's stated that he and friends either developed or were discussing this program, so I think this is probably a WP:VANITY edit, and a conflict of interest. Would you mind checking out his refs, so that I could get a second opinion on this?  M  22:08, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

i also believe M to only be contributing in one topic and have reason to believe his interest is solely on establishing Napster as the first p2p application which has been established in many many wiki articles that it is not even close to the first nor is it even p2p at all. All sources are factual and the software is called "linker34" specifically as the word linker if searched for would result in many sources obviously M is interested in obscuring the name of the product so to muddy the water in his arguments favor. M's only contributions to wiki are in the area of p2p file sharing and followups on rules to support his standing in that area. He has interest in no other area and obviously has some hidden motive to continue to pursue this in the face of overwhelming numbers of sources including USENET sources going back over a decade from the original authors. Now he wants to do an end run by coming here. Deathmolor (talk) 02:31, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
Well, I'll check this, but since I've also read in many articles and also in one printed book that Napster was the first one, I really doubt this linker34 story. Also, Deathmolor if you are really developping (or your friends are developping) this application, you should not add it to the wiki, as this would be against the rules. As for your statement about M, consider that everything you said against him is also true for me: most of my contirbutions are to topics about or linked to P2P. All my other contributions are normally only spelling fixes etc.
Anyway, I'll check your sources and report back if they are conform to the wiki standards...

Thanks! Also, please keep in mind that most of what Deathmolor is saying about me here and on those pages in an attempt to 'discredit' me is simply not true.  M  16:24, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Kiwi Alpha

You can ask an admin, or look here. I guess that doesn't have wiki formatting. Bpringlemeir (talk) 20:48, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

Thx for the advice, I already wrote on the talk page of the admin who deleted the article...

[edit] Re: Xtreme Mod

In reply to: User talk:Tomchen1989#Xtreme Mod

I'm not a C++ programmer, and I haven't contribute for the main code of any eD2k client project so far. But I'm a Chinese translator of some eMule Mods and an editor of a Chinese eMule/eD2k/P2P blog emulefans.com. Sometimes I also contribute some little stuff, like MorphXT's new country flags, a wordpress plugin, etc.--Tomchen1989 (talk) 17:28, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
