Talk:Avie Tevanian

message: It would be great if someone could add some of these points about Avie to the article when they have time...  .  PaulC/T+ 03:25, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, the link in the article is different than the above links and much more positive of Avie.  Nonetheless, there have been some decisions he has made about OS X that many people have problems with.  These criticisms should be part of this article.  PaulC/T+ 20:22, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Vandalism by BeteNoir 

message: I am truly sorry if you are offended and angered by the edit, however you cannot simply declare someone to be Armenian because you feel that their name sounds Armenian.
Regarding your false accusation and personal attack on me saying that I "declared Mr. Tevanian as an Iranian American", this accusation is completely bogas and disgusting display of hate.  I had simply removed the "Armenian" reference because there is no source in any biography on Mr. Tevanian either rumored or otherwise. Indeed there are absolutely no references to Mr. Tevanian's ethnicity anywhere.
'''
Regarding my request for adminship, that is none of your business and it has nothing to do with your issues with me.  Again I am sorry that you are so angered and hateful.
  
BeteNoir: Please stop the personal attacks immediately or you will be blocked. This is your third warning.

thread_title:  BeteNoir is upset because of a a legitimate edit made to Avadis Tevanian article by me 

message: The Armenian source you added was based on this Wikipedia article.
Can you not see the problem here?
Also, Mr. Tevanian never lived in "Maine" as that is what the focus of the reference you provided was.
The most likely story is that Mr. Tevanian is of dual ethnicity.  Tevanian was my boss for 4 years and in that time he never identified himself to me or anyone else as Armenian.

replies: text: If he's your boss, that would be a conflict of interest, something we wish to avoid here. Wikipedia entries must be verifiable, not original research, such as things your boss told you.⇒ SWATJester On Belay! 00:55, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Armenian source 

message: The article states the following:  "Tevanian retired from Apple on March 31, 2006."  And in the very next sentence, it says he  joined the board of another technology company.  That's not really retiring, it's just changing jobs.   I followed the link given as a reference, and it says he left the firm to "pursue other interests."  I'm going to change the word "retire" to "left".  Jhayman 16:54, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
