, as you did with OptionsXpress {{hangon}} talk page
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When using certain templates on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:uw-test1}} instead of {{uw-test1}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template. Thank you.

Looks like spam to me. Also, look at the sock puppets doing the edits in the history. CompRhetoric 12:33, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
- er, actually, notability is established in previous edits that were wiped. Need to restore back to [[1]] CompRhetoric 12:45, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

- I did not create OptionsXpress. If you check the article history here, you will see that I placed the original db tag. By the time I removed the tag here, the Co.'s notability had been established. The article has since been vandalized, and the notability-establishing refs. have been removed. Perhaps you should pay more attention to what you are doing. --Evb-wiki 14:20, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Notability
Regardless of who added what text and whether or not they had a conflict of interest, this is a widely written-about company.
