SciCord, LLC

Hello! This is in regards to why I rolled back your recent changes to the SciCord record. As was clearly stated in the account acceptance e-mail, "Y"s may not be added to the feature table without citing a source. Here's the relevant text from that acceptance e-mail:

"I'd also like to add something about a common mistake vendors make with their pages: You can ONLY add a cited "Y" to the product feature table if you can back it up with a web citation. (Read the disclaimer box above it carefully!) For example, your product may feature "Sample and/or result batching," but if it's not documented anywhere on the web — a citeable source like a company web page or publicly available user manual — you can't put a "Y" in the feature table. That has always been our policy: if we can't cite a reliable public source, we don't add it."

If the ELN has many features, consider adding them to the features page or brochure on the SciCord website. The more information made public on the site the more we can add and cite to the wiki record. That's our policy. Thanks! Shawn Douglas (talk) 17:23, 24 June 2015 (UTC)

In regards to the most recent edit, company information was placed in the product area. Additionally, marketing language and puffery were added. I moved the viable company info to the intro where it belongs and removed the marketing language. (You wrote "simplifies implementation & maintenance reducing the total cost of ownership, allowing organizations to focus on science" which is pure marketing and puffery; we do not permit that here.) I also restored the product description. Essentially, brief company synopsis at top (facts only), history of company next (facts only, with citations), then product info (facts only, no marketing language). If you have questions about LIMSwiki policy, you can contact me. Thanks. Shawn Douglas (talk) 17:46, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
