Copyright Permission.

Marcus,

How do I go about posting the permission statement? I am an employee of Stage-Gate and I have full permission to post this.

Thanks, Thai

Well if you want to make an article about the subject, it will have to be in a non-advertising manner. An encyclopedic outline of what it is. ---Marcus- 23:17, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Marcus - i have updated the content. i do not feel it sounds like an advertisment, could you let me know your thoughts. Also, how should I post the permissions statement? Thanks

You'll atleast have to take away the ®, and remove point-of-view statements such as When implemented properly, Stage-Gate delivers tremendous impact. You should put a "references" section too, where there are links to sites not affiliated with Stage-gate. And also, you can bypass the copyright problem simply by rewriting it in your own words, without using material from the site. Try checking out other Wikipedia articles too see what they are like. Stage-gate process scores over 30000 hits on google, so i'm sure it warrants an article, but it will have to be written in a non-advertising manner. ---Marcus- 00:38, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
