Hi again, I have not realy grasped how this talk works, but I'm writing here since I cannot find the way I communicated with you last time.

I've added some third party info (Inhabitat blog) but I can also add writings from magazines, news papers if it would help. Do you want more emphasis on the technology or on the benefits of it, or on possible applications? Maybe more general info about light?

Well, just wanted to let you know that I'm working on it!

Regards / Rikard

Hello, I tried to create a neutral company description and looked at Zumtobel and Saab for inspiration and guide line of what could be noted. please contact me if I should change the page.

Best regards / Rikard

To answer your question, Saab, at least, is an extremely notable company. I don't see an article for Zumbotel. You may find the guidelines at WP:CORP useful for determining whether a company is notable enough for inclusion, and at WP:NPOV for how to write a neutral article. Finally, any claims (such as those regarding the benefits of the lights) would have to be cited from a third-party source such as a peer-reviewed paper or newspaper, not from the company website or one of its press releases, per the verifiability guidelines.Seraphimblade 11:00, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually the misspelling of the company name was my mistake, you had it correct both times. Once I actually typed it in right it worked fine, amazing! :)

As to the Zumtobel article, the latest version of it was a spamvertisement as well. I've reverted it to an earlier and much more neutral version, you may wish to have another look at it. You'll still need to cite some third-party sources to establish the company's notability though, such as a newspaper writeup (not just a reprinted press release or a paid ad) or a neutral, third-party review of the company's products. I'll withdraw the speedy nomination for now so you have some time to find sources, and will be happy to help with a rewrite from them if you can point me in that direction.
