    On the "Wiki Cleanup":https://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/Wiki_cleanup page of the wiki three articles are listed as candidates to be removed and needing some discussion:

    • "Non traditional usage of a phone":https://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/MobilePhoneNonTraditionalUsage Probably off topic.
    • "Non traditional usage of a phone: mirror":https://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/NonTraditionalUsageMobileMirror Probably off topic.
    • "ToolchainWindows":https://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/ToolchainWindows What’s the purpose of this? Is something meaningful linking here?

    I personally see not any useful content in any of these three pages and would plead for deletion. What do you guys think?

        I wouldn't say they should necessary be deleted. They look like an attempt of starting a "brainstorm". Maybe editing it to make the "goal" would help but, for me, the contents would probably be best placed on a forum thread...

        Can't guess what this is about or how can it be useful to someone else. I would vote for deletion unless the author plans on finishing it (it reminded me of the suggestion of being able to save wiki drafts :) )

        The contents are not Qt related at all.

        All three articles popped up on Dec 3/4/5, I would really call them Project Elf SPAM. If it really was some brainstorm, they should have been discussed seriously in the "wiki forum":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/forums/viewforum/16/ or edited in the wiki later on. The articles are idle for 6 weeks now and I hardly believe that anyone will care in the future.

            same to me, I also agree.

            I remember there was some discussion, where this page with "Non traditional usage of a phone" came out. But it was just fun, I think.

              I've charged up the delete button but I'd like Alexandra to have a look before going in for the kill. So some time Monday :)

                I kept those pages during December to see if anything is added to them but that was not the case. I agree that they can go.

                I will go and delete them.
