Editor on this article, 69.247.131.76 has a reserve lookup of

Comcast Cable Communications, Inc. NASHVILLE-21 (NET-69-247-128-0-1)
69.247.128.0 - 69.247.159.255

Which would seem to indicate that they come from the same city as this companies HQ, given the nature of the edits by that user, I beleieve there is a high probability that there is a conflict of interest here, tagging the article as such 82.32.73.70 (talk) 11:25, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

82.32.73.70. Please clarify why you believe this is phrased as an advertisement. It is stating facts about a state-of-the-art control system architecture and the company. Explain yourself and stop simply threatening the editor. —Preceding unsigned comment added by URINC (talk • contribs) 14:36, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I made no threat of any sort, see WP:NPA. I consider it advertising because of extensive use of slogans and advertising terms in the introduction, see WP:PCK. The conflict of interest tag is CERTAINLY appropriate since your username now shows you to be affiliated with the subject of the article so I'm putting that back now, see WP:COI for further information on conflicts of interest. I won't restore the advert tag at the moment since you say you're actively working on the page, please give me an indication of how long you will be doing this. 82.32.73.70 (talk) 15:36, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly you are an expert in these matters. Your insight will be valuable. We will stick with the facts, and watch the use of slogans. We'll review the WP:PCK and make adjustments. Can you contact me at 0222@usa.net for further discussion? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.247.131.76 (talk) 15:53, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reply, I hope we can work together to make this a good article, I prefer to keep discussions here on the talk page because my access to email is a little erratic at the moment. Obviously your company does fully deserve an article on wiki, we just need to keep it objective and neutral point of view. Let me know when you've completed the current rewrite and we can work together to make it a good article that doesn't need the advertising warning. 82.32.73.70 (talk) 16:04, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. you many want to apply either Template:Underconstruction or Template:Inuse to the main page, that would alert other editors to the fact you're working on the page and discourage them from tagging it with ((advert)) like I did till you're done. 82.32.73.70 (talk) 16:22, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've further reduced the use of advertising terms on this page and hence removed the advert tag. Although this page did start out as a blatant advert ( I initially considered listing it for speedy ) I do think we need to acknowledge that the contributors from UR. Inc. have made a serious and partially successfully attempt to write in a neutral tone. The COI tag however will most likely have to be permanent because no matter how NPOV the rewrite, a large chunk of the basic info was supplied by the article's subject. 82.32.73.70 (talk) 09:29, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
