SDL Trados#Criticism

I've used Trados for years, and all the criticisms recently deleted by User:81.100.167.239 have proven true for my experience; moreover, googling about shows anywhere from hundreds to thousands of hits for searches like trados "bad support" or trados overpriced. Last I knew, criticisms themselves that are not on Wikipedia proper do not need substantial research backing them up to still be considered as "criticism"; moreover, Special:Contributions/81.100.167.239 shows that this IP has only ever edited this article, and reverse DNS puts the address in the UK, leaving open the possibility that this user is an SDL employee. I'm therefore reverting their edits to the SDL Trados#Criticism section. -- Eiríkr Útlendi | Tala við mig 23:33, 16 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Looking through the article's history, User:80.74.0.1 blanked part of the Criticism section, and this address resolves to SDL Intl. In addition, multiple IPs in the 81.100.x.x block have deleted all or part of the Criticism section (Special:Contributions/81.100.164.215, used only once ever, to delete criticism from this page; Special:Contributions/81.100.166.58, used almost exclusively to edit the SDL Trados page, mostly to delete criticism or add technical details; Special:Contributions/81.100.167.239, so far used only to edit this page, mostly to delete criticism), and these all resolve to addresses in the UK as customers of the cable ISP "virginmedia.com". This looks suspicious to me; if addresses in this IP range continue to remove criticisms, I will see about recommending a temporary block. -- Eiríkr Útlendi | Tala við mig 00:10, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Trados = Translation for DOS

I am a professional translator who works at a translation agency and I still recall going to a presentation of Trados with my then colleague C in 1995 or thereabouts. At that time, the program that would later be called MultiTerm was still running under DOS. Hence TraDOS I guess. This program suite is older than it looks! I also added a 'citation needed' tag to the claim that SDL Trados is the 'market leading' CAT. In fact, a great deal of our freelance translators prefer WordFast or Déjà Vu. Perhaps the extortionate cost (EUR 2775) of a professional Trados license puts them off? 81.164.160.148 (talk) 18:48, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
