Noting the removal of images... thumb|right|250px|Beta Labs homepage prior to Microsoft moving it to UserVoice

Note that images are usually moved to the History section otherwise they'll be deleted while they're still relevant to the content, think of the Nokia Lumia logo on the Microsoft Lumia page or the older Microsoft Hotmail logo's on the Outlook dot com page.

Non-free images are not permitted to be used on talk pages. --B (talk) 12:40, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

¿Redundant information?

I don't want this to escalate into a useless edit war, so let's try to solve this in a civil manner. I fail to see how these informative images are redundant and how the organization of this page is somehow repeated iformation.

Please stop deleting the images, they serve this article for a purpose and images like these are common on Wikipedia

"If there are no problems with the current version, and it meets the non-free content criteria, please delete the previous version(s) on March 30, 2015 (seven days after March 23, 2015, when this template was added)." these ones even meet the criteria for non-free images, so please stop removing them, this article should've never been renamed to Lumia Beta Apps in the first place, this should've served for the historic Nokia Beta Labs site as the Microsoft Mobile page contains most of the latest information on the Lumia Beta Apps. It serves absolutely no-one to remove encyclopedic content and the only reason these images are nominated for deletion is because someone keeps removing them from the article, so it's practically a vicious cycle where these images are declared to be worthy of keeping, someone removes them again, a bot will say that it's not used in any articles and should be deleted, then they get back again, and the user who previously removed them will now remove them with the justification that they're nominated for deletion, please stop removing these images, I think that it's better to just rename this article "Nokia Beta Labs" and let the Microsoft stuff which barely is its own website be at Microsoft Mobile. --86.81.201.94 (talk) 07:44, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Rename the article back to Nokia Beta Labs, move all Microsoft information to Microsoft Mobile Oy

Or maybe a merger, but there is practically no information on the UserVoice site which probably wouldn't qualify as Wikipedia literally has no information for any other UserVoice sites include those for bigger ones, think Microsoft Windows, Windows Phone, Etc. while Nokia Beta Apps was an actual separate website, Lumia Beta Apps isn't even a full migration as most was archived in the M.S.D.N. and this site merely serves as a place-holder, the article name-change was also done without consensus, and the Microsoft Mobile article has more information about the latest applications than this article, in fact changing its name back to Nokia Beta Labs would make more sense because A) the slogan is incorrect, B) the screenshot, and logo would make sense as a part of the Nokia Beta Labs article, but are constantly deleted because of the renamed article, C) the date of launch also doesn't make sense as the article is about a website while the L.B.A. are merely a collection of pages on UserVoice, and D) there is literally no information on the Lumia Beta Apps on this site, only that the Nokia Beta Apps were renamed, but all recent information was added to Microsoft Mobile#Lumia Beta Apps including several beta trials so the fact that this page was renamed Lumia Beta Apps makes no sense.

This is a contested technical request (permalink). -- AlexTW 06:38, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have proposed this move because Nokia phones beta labs is now the official name of the relaunched service (see https://www.nokia.com/en_int/phones/betalabs). --KaukoHaapavesi (talk) 17:49, 10 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
