Talk:Linsear Write

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My company added this article to WP and we had a simple link to our software product which includes this test. As far as I know, no other software offers this test, so including this link may have actually been useful to some readers.

If this is considered as some sort of violation of policy then that is fine and I apologize, although I fail to see why our software product is being singled out. A number of our competitors (e.g, KWord, MS Word, GNU Style) are listed in your readability test articles, but only our product is being seen as "spam" for some odd reason and has been systematically removed. It was never our intention to abuse WP, we simply wished to add and improve your readability test articles and then offer links to our product for those interested in readability software. The only reason we thought of doing this is because it was quite clear that other software packages were already mentioned in these articles.

At any rate, if this is the case then I wish to ask for this page to be removed and we will begin housing readability test documentation on our own website.
