Dear Cupids Wings, I see that you have placed 'written like an advert' and 'this page is an advert' template banners on a few company/product description pages. A recent page that has received a template from you is DriveSentry. I am interested in why you think the page is written like an advert? The

Products section - Removed/merged with other sections. Is this article about the company, or the free AV product? I've removed references to GoAnywhere in particular (and in other sections) - from its description, this is a separate (commercial) product, and it would make make more sense for it to

However, am I always constructive in my editing, and two other editors feel it's worth keeping, then fair enough. I've modified it to be more neutral by removing a couple of references which will certainly have been obsoleted by now (competing antivirus products typically release new signatures

Looking back at the edits I've put in, the article has shrunk somewhat as a result - please don't be offended by this - as it states at the bottom when you submit an edit: "If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly or redistributed for profit by others, do not submit it!". This is

I know of one other editor who calls herself bluubar. The product does get a good reception in some of the security blogging posts by users of the product so I suspect these are people who are also editing the page. However the article has received many edits from people who for sure work for

Thank you for taking the time to edit the article which I can assure you has not been written with intent as an advertisement, the article has deliberately highlighted to the reader the 3 external links to our site and does not in anyway try to persuade a reader to visit the site.
371:
I marked "Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware" for deletion as it's nothing more than an advert for a software product. It consists of a single paragraph outlining what it does, followed by a "reception" section which only has links to very brief byline mentions on a few WWW sites.

Thank you also for removing the marketing waffle. However I think you were a bit heavy handed with GoAnywhere so I may add a little back in to explain an item or two this time without the marketing waffle.

FYI our products are free to use BUT a user can add additional paid for add on’s so like Skype I need to change our licence to ‘Freeware (with some paid feature)’
