Hi, I've noticed you have tried to add another provider to the list on Virtual private network. I have removed the newly added links because we try to avoid long lists of products or companies on articles. If you think this product is one of the best in the field, you should consider requesting an article to be created for this product. To do this, click "here", and follow the instructions. If you need a hand or want advice, place a message here after my message; I will check back in a half an hour. John Vandenberg 11:40, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the mention of "WallCooler" from Virtual private network again; we need to verify it is notable before including it on that list. Has the product been subjected to in-depth reviews by any industry magazines? John Vandenberg 13:44, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi John,

I understand your point, I think this product is very new, I had never heard of it before I discovered it in a forum 2 weeks ago (at http://groups.google.com/group/alt.comp.freeware/browse_thread/thread/1421d12f8cecde50/505a1a3720ff0f99). I have been using it since then, and I am impressed by the tool, so I was wondering why it was not on Wikipedia. I don't know if there has been article published. But I have been using VPNs for a while and it is definitely one of the best free solution I have tried. I will follow your advice and request for an article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brwave (talk • contribs) 14:07, 1 July 2007

One of the requirements for any article on Wikipedia is that the information must be available externally. The policy is called "No original research". So, if you want an article here, you need to find some sources on the web to accompany the article. Independent trade reviews would be the most appropriate types of sources to be looking for in this case. Refer to WP:RS for more info, or ask me any questions here.
