message: Where would I add criticism for Bell throttling internet? Would it belong on this page?
Known periods:
2000-2008 (different class action lawsuit)
2009-2012 (different class action lawsuit)
2013-present (work in progress, they've become sneaky about it better than Rodgers who got caught throttling WoW)
I write a clean article when I know for sure where to put it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.66.188.28 (talk) 22:40, 27 November 2021 (UTC)

message: I've changed the term "subsidiary" to "division", because Sympatico is merely a brand name; it's not a seperate entity. - quanta July 5/2004
Sympatico is refered to as a "Line of Business", if there are no objections Matthew 21:53, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Bell Sympatico is currently offering speeds of up to 6Mbps on it's Ultra plan for member's close enough to their various Central Offices. - Xakor August 21/2005
- Actually 6Mbps is only for business customers (for now). Sympatico is their residential service. - quanta 02:23, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

message: How is this page an advert..? I really don't think it is; I think it is reporting the what Bell Sympatico is and what services they offer. --Royalflight 01:56, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

message: As discussed above, I have edited this page to remove the bulk of the product catalogue and marketing.  Please, if you are the Bell Sympatico employee editing this page then refer to the article on Wikispam.  Notably what it says there;  "Wikispam articles are usually noted for sales-oriented language and external links to a commercial website."  Your detailed listing of services within this article, concentrating on availability and price, along with multiple deep-links into the sales and customer support sections of your website, clearly constitutes Wikispam.  If you can add further cited information about your company, then do so.  But please stop adding detailed product information that is obviously only concerned with promoting your services.  Also note that, due to Wikipedia's search engine policies, adding links here will not increase your site's ranking in search engines like google (for the very reason that it would otherwise encourage link spamming in Wikipedia).   If you wish to discuss this further then please contribute to this page.  Thanks.  --Escape Orbit (Talk) 22:26, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

message: This talk page is not a forum for discussing the merits of the company's products.  It's for discussion on improving the article.  Unless you can contributed notable and cited criticism of Bell Sympatico advertising of products then you have come to the wrong place.  This is not the place to "spark discussion" or "get the truth out". --Escape Orbit (Talk) 13:34, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Not a Forum 

message: I see that there's a small war going on, those external links to every single product Bell offers keeps getting added(wp is no a link farm). I removed those, added that neutrality check template and hope it's all ok. Besides that i added more info on net neutrality. Beware, i watch this now! - Mile92 (talk) 06:14, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Neutrality of the Article 

message: A user wrote the following comment on the Bell Internet article:
"The most recent criticism from a new fibe25 user (soon to be an ex user) is that the service is "ONE WAY".  From home it works great, but you cannot access your home computer from your office, or anywhere else, because Bell does NOT route the incoming traffic from their concentrator to your home.  Effectively they are selling a ONE WAY street instead of a TWO WAY (the old DSL was a 2 way)."
If there isn't enough people with this complaint, then it can't be included on the Article page.  --True Tech Talk Time (talk) 14:31, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
