Why would anyone get so uppity about removing it?  Even worst case scenario, assume it'll NEVER ship (I believe it will), there's plenty of other "in the works" or vaporware products with similar wikipedia entries.

I didn't realize that "work in progress" things that are actively being worked on could just be deleted from wikipedia.  :(

Plenty of other well intentioned and planned amiga hardware projects that never did and never will see the light of day with wiki entries...

I see the videos the Natami folks have provided of the machine functioning to be as valid of evidence as the demos of the X1000.  :angry:

Thing that puzzles me about people being so uptight about wiki entries is what harm is the Natami entry doing?  Sounds more like someone with opposing views on the project is pissy and has a personal axe to grind, and I find that sad in a small market like what we have here.

The joys of community contributed knowledge bases, I suppose...

Why are they shit talking you when you are trying to mount a campaign to have their project remain in Wikipedia, lol?  I give up with some of these people, it's like herding goddamned cats.

Them hosting their own wiki is sorta weak and undermines the work and effort they have put into the project.  If the project is active, it deserves to be on wikipedia - Natami will be a very important product to the Amiga community if it sees the light of day.
