On Wikipedia, we adhere to a neutral point of view (NPOV) and avoid promotional language or puffery. Please read the NPOV policy page, as well as this page of language to avoid to better understand how to expand this article in a style suitable to an encyclopedia.

@MorbidEntree: My apologies, I was actually attempting to remove the promotional language that I felt already was present by simplifying it down to more basic details. I read over the NPOV entries and its less clear about what to do when attempting to clean up promotional language that's already present. Do you have any tips on doing so?

- What I usually do is look for words and phrases that invoke emotion and feelings and try to make them more "cold" and factual. Essentially, try to boil it down to pure absolute facts. --MorbidEntree - (Talk to me! (っ◕‿◕)っ♥)(please reply using {{ping}}) 01:55, 21 August 2016 (UTC)
