Welcome!
Hello, Cobusk, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, your edit to Sappi does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.
There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{Help me}}
on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Just wanted to catch up on some detailed review of Sappi. I'll review the changes you proposed, and of course we want to make sure that information about a subject is reasonably up to date. However, some of the existing references are secondary sources which help support the company's notability and history, and such information should not automatically be deleted, but perhaps identified as a historical rather than current situation. The article already had concerns raised about too much reliance on primary sources (i.e. company references), which is not a problem by itself as long as there are also references from outside sources (which helps with Wikipedia practicies such as WP:NPOV and WP:V). I'll try to update the article accordingly, and see how best to write up the current situation. If you can find other secondary sources (e.g. news items) for additional support, you can also include those in to expand and clarify the article. Thank you for your interest in updating Sappi.
