Please do not recreate this article again with the content you have been using. It is a copyright violation of [1]. Wikipedia does not, in most cases, permit the use of copyrighted material in its articles. Also, it is unlikely that this organization is notable enough to warrant inclusion of an article in Wikipedia. Please see Wikipedia:Notability. If you have questions about this, I'd be happy to answer. Thanks, --Durin 14:02, 31 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

  • Regarding the copyright issue; you as User:Jackemoe do not represent a copyright authority that can be independently verified as the copyright authority for this material. Since the material is a verbatim copy of one of the pages on the company's website, and since we do not have independently verifiable confirmation that this material has been released under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, we must assume it is a copyright violation. If you would like to make this an official release of information, then please send me an e-mail from a recognizable Stansberry and Associates e-mail address to wikidurin@hotmail.com acknowledging the release of all posted materials under the terms of GFDL. I will then post that release on the article's talk page.
  • Regarding notability; this is often disputed for quite a number of companies who place profiles on Wikipedia. Simply because a company exists does not mean it merits an article on Wikipedia. Notability must be attained. You've made a claim on my talk page that this company is notable because it is one of the top independent financial newsletter and publication companies in the world. This was not presented in the article. Instead, the article has been essentially an introduction followed with a directory of people in the company. If you want to recreate the article, I strongly suggest you include such a claim to notability and cite a basis for that claim on something that is independently verifiable. Also, it is generally not considered to be good form for a company to write its own article. If you're notable enough to have an article on Wikipedia, eventually someone will make the article who is independent of your company and can more likely write from a neutral point of view.
  • Regarding the content of the article; Please understand, Wikipedia is not to be used for indescriminate collections of information. You may wish to review WP:NOT#Wikipedia_is_not_an_indiscriminate_collection_of_information. If the article contained substantially more information about the company, what it does, achievements, publications, etc, then a short listing of the significant people in the company would be appropriate. As is, the listing of the people is dominating the article and making it a directory of personnel at the company rather than an article about the company.
  • If I can be of assistance, please let me know. Thanks, --Durin 14:25, 31 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

What annoys me is the way that you try to get away with it "on the cheap". If the best you can do is spend a few minutes copy-and-pasting your website, you don't deserve an article here. I have protected the page but if you are actually prepared to spend some time preparing a proper article in Wikipedia style and which establishes the company's notability, feel free to do so at User:Jackemoe/sandbox. When you have done that, contact Durin, or me or any other admin. -- RHaworth 16:50, 31 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

On second thoughts, don't bother: if you are from Stansberry's the article will still be advertising and WP:VAIN applies. Wait until one of your clients decides to enthuse here about your services. -- RHaworth 16:57, 31 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
