Close paraphrasing and puffery edit
Much of the text that I removed was very close paraphrasing – enough that it bordered on a copy-paste copyright violation. Please do not restore it. Other bits were way too promotional. On Wikipedia, we call this "puffery", and it doesn't really help readers to understand the topic any better than using simple, plain wording. Wikipedia is written for the benefit of the readers, not the article subjects themselves, who, I'm sure, would all love to be described in glowing terms. That's not how we write here, though.
