All pages which mention Michael Pousti, including SMS.AC, mention that he sends unsolicited SMS messages. There are no references cited to establish those facts.

Michael Pousti is the author of 25 patent registrations, 10 of which were officially granted by the U.S.P.T.O. Every mention of these seems to be taken down, although they are publicly cited on the U.S.P.T.O.'s (www.uspto.gov) website.

UNBELIEVABLE

I'm going to go ahead and put the bio of a random McDonald's franchise owener on wikipedia. Or better yet, a personal history and detailed wikipedia entry about the temporary Vice-Chief-of-Staff's co-assistant of a local bakery. This is pathetic there's no need for such an article.

Pretty sure the point of Wikipedia is to have info up on such "random" people that don't get racks of 500 page books dedicated to them. So go ahead and put up all the bios you want, the wiki will be all the better for it. :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.199.221.6 (talk) 00:31, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I concur with the first comment. This article doesn't belong on Wikipedia. And the second comment from 72.199.221.6 shows unfamiliarity with the purpose of Wikipedia and bios on Wikipedia. You may be "pretty sure" that's Wikipedia's purpose, but you'd be "pretty wrong." It isn't the 'purpose' of Wikipedia to document random unknowns, and clearly this article attempts to do so. It seems to be promotional material for a minor company. I would recommend its removal. Tomasjpn (talk) 06:38, 21 January 2010 (UTC)Tomasjpn[reply]
