Talk:GridMathematica

message: I started this page today, as I think it deserves a page. IMHO, and it is shared by at least some others, the Mathematica page has often been used as an advertising medium for Wolfram Research, with anything not in the interest of Wolfram Research often removed. Let's try not to do this here. Let us try to keep it neutral. I'm not a user of this product, so perhaps someone with more knowledge can add some examples. It could probably do with being put into the same format as other software, showing version, developer etc. I might do that if I have time. Drkirkby 08:17, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Please don't make it an advert 

message: The product is called gridMathematica with a lower case 'g' at the start. It would seem most logical for the Wikipedia page to be spelt like this, but my attempts to create the page always resulted in the first letter being changed to a capital G. Drkirkby 08:17, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Could the name of page be changed to gridMathematica? 

message: I created a page on gridMathematica. I'm not a user (yet), so are not an expert. Someone else can perhaps improve it, but I've made a start. Keep it NPOV - the Mathematica does tend to be rather propmotional. 
There is an interesting point at the top of this talk page by ChrisChiasson when he complianed about the  "vaguely promotional tone"  He later went on to say:  "I am not an impartial entity with respect to WRI. That is why I haven't edited the article.~"  
There is some logic to that. It would tend to avoid the sort of pro-Wolfram bias the Mathematica article suffers at times.  But I can see that those with the best knowledge of the product are likely to work for Wolfram Reserach. This is I guess even more true of gridMathematica than the normal version. But if someone from Wolfram Reserach wants to edit it, try to keep it neutral.  Drkirkby 12:35, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You didn't source it. Were you planning to? If no one does, your gridMathematica article is highly vulnerable to nomination for deletion. --Pleasantville 13:20, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

text: Articles about people, products, or companies that are not referenced to what Wikipedia calls a "reliable source" often get tagged either for what's called "speedy deletion" or get tagged as being unsourced, which can lead toward deletion. This is somewhat random in that whether this happens depends on the disposition of Wikipedians stumbling upon the article. This is part of Wikipedia's immune system to keep people and companies from using WIkipedia for self-promotion. --Pleasantville 13:49, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: OK. I've added a few references, but I didn't use them to source particular points. I just listed them as External references. --208.54.95.163 15:15, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Image copyright problem with Image:Spikey v6-small.png

message: With the release of gridMathematica 7, the design has changed significantly, so I have done a big re-write of the page. While I think that I have got across the main points, I can't spend the time to make this polished, and so it needs some additional editing.
Also, I should disclose that I have been significantly involved in the release of this product. JonMcLoone (talk) 14:02, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
