Nominate for Deletion

This article is not notable. Several references which claims to be featured articles by major media outlets, are in fact Press Releases by the company. 24.34.105.47 (talk) 07:42, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

COI tag

The original version of this article was placed by Gstr 887 (talk · contribs), an account that has been confirmed as a Morning277 sock-puppet. The Morning277 accounts appear to be doing paid editing, and I noticed neutrality problems in other articles they contributed. —rybec 23:50, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

Comment Is it not true that articles by paid agencies are deleted and authors ID/IP is banned? If right, then why this article is not deleted? As I mentioned on the AfD page that this article seems to me by a paid agency for self promotion and should be deleted. Working for 28 years in the field of Biotechnology and knowing Moderna management, I was not surprised at all the discovery of paid pages. Regardless of the article is notable or not, as other articles by paid agencies are usually deleted this should be too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sh scientist (talk • contribs) 07:30, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

Comment The AfD result was keep? Did the Admin notice that at least one of the commenter ( Publicindividual87) at AfD talk page was a confirmed sock puppet of Morning277? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sidv220 (talk • contribs) 14:22, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

@Sh scientist:No. Paid editing is allowed on Wikipedia - just discouraged. Mdann52 (talk) 14:32, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

Well, if this editing was paid for, I'd demand money back :-) Staszek Lem (talk) 21:15, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

@Staszek Lem Ummm... I like the way you Deadquartered the company. LOL Sh scientist (talk) 00:01, 20 July 2013 (UTC)

<shrug> It just confirms my point, right? Staszek Lem (talk) 01:46, 20 July 2013 (UTC)

Yeah! it confirmed my point too for voting Delete - :-). Anyway.... Sh scientist (talk) 01:51, 20 July 2013 (UTC)

@Staszek Lem Here are references to Ethris, Germany http://www.ethris.com/ and Cellscript of Pennsylvania http://www.cellscript.com/ Please review if appropriate, you can add them to the last sentence where citation is needed.Sh scientist (talk) 02:02, 20 July 2013 (UTC)

I am afraid you misunderstood my concerns. Yes, the companies exist and do something that sounds similar. But we need a reference from and independent reliable source which states whether they do the same or similar or competing or whatever technology. Staszek Lem (talk) 15:45, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
