No mention of individuals who invented it—just the company[edit]

Not a single mention of my great grandfather or any of the other team members that actually invented it. Why are we giving credit to the company and not the ACTUAL people who invented it???

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 215,845 r MEO) of MAKNG MEASURING NSTRUMENT PON ERS enry I. Bernarde, Kearny, N. J., assignor to Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Com pany, East Pittsburgh, Pa., a corporation of Pennsylvania Application October 9, 936, Serial No. 104,828 73.197.10.94 (talk) 17:15, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What are you talking about?! The History section names several inventors and no companies. Who is your great grandfather, "I. Bernarde"? Your text above is choppy and hard to read. Assuming you meant to write an application date of October 9, 1936, then that's far, far later than the 1888 invention given in the article. Perhaps your great grandfather just made a smaller innovation (which would not be notable) for Westinghouse and patented that. Besides, IP done for a company belongs to that company. — voidxor 00:20, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also, neither of the US patent or application numbers you gave are for what you say:
