I added the vandalism entry because this issue is already gaining significant publicity. The new technologies section, as with much of this general article, was filled with marketing double-speak and repetition. My favorite was: "Qtel has also implemented TETRA (Terrestrial Trunked Radio) which is a professional mobile radio system especially designed to meet operational communication needs for small to large industrial entities and organizations." I believe I edited to keep the necessary content in while reducing wordiness, but would certainly appreciate it if someone else would give this and other sections a strong look-over. --Thatnewguy 15:05, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Added redirect from Qatar Telecom. --Thatnewguy 15:28, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is worth improving this article, but I see no reason for this silly news story to be mentioned at all. This is not an important incident for Qtel, Qatar, or Wikipedia. It is a total non-story trumped up by the media at random. If anything, it could go into an article about press errors or something. :) But really, there is no "vandalism controversy" here.--Jimbo Wales 19:39, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Added taipei.pm.org, which I guess is an artifact in the filtering software from chinese use. 82.148.97.69 10:03, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This "silly news story" is a widely reported news story. I came to this page to find information about this news story: the link to the BBC article gave me what I needed. The repeated removal of this information is not an impressive introduction to the collaborative editing of Wikipedia. DavidCh0 11:01, 10 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm trying to rewrite this page from the information that's already in the current version. I reuploaded the You can leave comments and suggestions on in this talk page or my user talk. My sandbox is here: [1].

The company has been renamed Ooredoo. This article needs to be moved to the new name. --Mohamad Takriti (talk) 05:09, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Should we have categories for companies censoring internet? Or services? Or do WP usually does it by countries? Serenity id (talk) 05:49, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm done restructuring, rewriting, and inserting reference. This article still need a lot of work and more in depth investigation if it would like to reflect current situation, especially in the acquisition and subsidiary company. A lot of companies haven't been included - I think I read something about Al-Jazeera actually is a sub of this company, but I'm not sure, I lost the ref. The indosat share-buying in Indonesia are also controversial since the GoI actually need to rewritten the country's policy to allow that to happened (New York Times) and some other references. The services section need a lot of work because it sounded like they are trying to advertise things or make it sound top notch, it either need to be rewritten or omitted entirely.

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Ooredoo's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
