I have private messaged mikej to get permission for this but I think. He will allow it has long we don't publish his copyrighted stuff. I think his copyrighting the pcb layout.

Not really, but that's only because I very rarely view Wiki stuff... :)

PS:Could you give you polls a chance to run a wee bit longer instead of changing them every 2 days... ;)

His permission is not required.

No, but it is polite to ask.
Feel free. Anything I don't like I'll change :)

New website is coming together well, by the way.

My theory is that he made a new poll quickly because he didn't quite like how the results of his last one started to turn out ;)

You won't get a page to stick on Wikipedia unless the content is notable, published articles from noteworthy sources would help which isn't very likely until it's been released and reviewed elsewhere. For now it's better to keep it as a note in the Minimig article.

I don't have shares/bonds nor any investment in Natami nor Clone-A nor FPGA Arcade, so the results dont affect me. They maybe of interest to people who maybe investing money in the various FPGA projects though.

It's just going to get kicked back by the moderators because it's not big enough to be included in Wikipedia.  They do a fair amount of house cleaning and the page wouldn't survive a house cleaning.
