:Ogg is not an acronym and should not be treated as such.  When talking about Ogg files, as in content inside the container, you should refer to it as either Ogg Video, Ogg Audio, or Ogg Application.  When you see someone saying "OGG", they usually mean Vorbis, so you see, you should avoid using those terms because it reveals ignorance for Ogg is not Vorbis, and Vorbis is not Ogg, although Vorbis does show up inside Ogg frequently.--[[User:Saoshyant|Ivo]] 06:49, 20 October 2007 (PDT)

Ogg is not an acronym and should not be treated as such. When talking about Ogg files, as in content inside the container, you should refer to it as either Ogg Video, Ogg Audio, or Ogg Application. When you see someone saying "OGG", they usually mean Vorbis, so you see, you should avoid using those terms because it reveals ignorance for Ogg is not Vorbis, and Vorbis is not Ogg, although Vorbis does show up inside Ogg frequently.--Ivo 06:49, 20 October 2007 (PDT)

Handling SPAM

Please don't add {{Delete}} or move newly created SPAM pages. This just makes them more difficult to process (by creating #REDIRECTs). There are lots of editors patrolling for newly created SPAM, so there is no need to highlight such pages. (If you spot old SPAM pages then that is a different matter.)
