PS Thanks for your updates to International Medical Press and the journals. Employees are usually discouraged from editing pages on companies or their products, because of the inevitable conflict of interest & the tendency for overly promotional language to get introduced. It's fine to make small factual corrections or to update, say, impact factors. If there are problems with the article, it might be best to raise them on the talk page, so that other editors can make the changes. You can read the discussion at WP:COI for more guidance.

- No-one is prevented from editing anything (barring decisions of various dispute resolution bodies which I won't bore you with) -- the degree of bias depends on the distance from the company, so current and recent ex-employees should exercise particular caution.

- I've attempted to clarify that the company was originally part of Meditech Media, but is now part of The Nucleus Group. If you know the date at which it was transferred, it would be helpful to add it (particularly if you have a reference). Also, if you have the location of the "Asia-Pacific" office that would be very helpful -- it looks rather odd with just the region. I can't seem to find location details on the company website.
