[edit] Industrial fans

Hi, you can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~~~~

This article was deleted twice by myself and another admin because it is advertising, and because there are other problems (and it makes me nervous that a PR company is involved).

Passages like the following include unsourced advert type claims: “Leaders in fan technology” Halifax fan (UK) have been developing centrifugal fans for over 40 years. In that time advances have been made through hours of research and development … With the onset of green culture Halifax fan have developed fan systems that promote High efficiency through the use of tailor made fans with matching frequency inverters This is clearly advertising.

You are supposed to give independent sources to show that the article is notable, and to allow verification of any claims. Your only reference is this, which is not independent

Your page ends This page including all its content has been generated with the kind permission of Halifax Fan ltd.. This raises all sorts of problems. Any text or images posted in Wikipedia must be released under the GFDL licence, which permits commercial use as well as non-commercial. If the company are claiming any sort of ownership beyond that, the text and images cannot be used.

If they are releasing the text and images under the GFDL (or making it public domain), they should make it clear on their website that the images and text are freely available under the GFDL.

A minor point is that since anyone can edit the contents, content should not be signed or acknowledgements posted on the article page. Hope this helps, Jimfbleak 15:54, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
