Points of interest

...is an unsourced section, which lately has become a site for adding Ponix Laboratories. Without sources to establish importance, there is nothing to support the notability of the numerous businesses, camps, etc. listed here. As such it's likely to be used for promotion of individual entities as well as a 'chamber of commerce' section, promotional on the whole. 99.137.209.90 (talk) 15:44, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, inclusion of local businesses can lead to abuse, but Ponix clearly isn't benefiting in any of the ways you're suggesting: it's an independent research firm, and it isn't a virtual storefront. In terms of gaining prominence through abuse, Wikipedia includes code so that references don't give websites "Google search points" for precisely this reason, so Ponix isn't gaining anything on that front either. In terms of secondary sources, what exactly would you be satisfied with?Xiii1408 (talk) 17:04, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
