Distributed Inter-Process Communication

Mohsen Sharifi from Iran University of Science and Technology has been using this page for personal propaganda. He has been claiming that DIPC is his idea and that he has been working on it since 1997. Please refer to DIPC's home page below to see why this is not so.

A quick Internet search shows that Mohsen Sharifi tried to sell DIPC by renaming it as "C-Sharifi" a few years ago. Failing to market this vaporware product (in spite of flooding the Internet with the same post), he has been trying to instead get credit for DIPC.

Professional and Ethical honesty is of utmost importance in all scientific matters. Wikipedia maintainers should either stop Mohsen Sharifi from misuing this page, or remove DIPC's page all-together, so it won't be misused any further for personal use. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2009/05/18 07:36:52 (talk • contribs)

This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 12:24, 18 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep. There does seem to be a superior version in the history, before an apparently long standing edit war broke out, apparently between Dr. Sharifi and his detractors.

There may be issues with the notability of this whatever-it-is generally, but no grounds for deleting the article are stated in this nomination. AfD is not for resolving edit wars. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:45, 18 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
