I have reverted your recent changes to the article Gartner. Your changes do not appear to be consistent with Wikipedia's aim to write articles from a neutral point of view. In addition, you removed large sections of properly sourced material and important internal information such as the interWiki links. This is not appropriate. Please be more careful with your editing in the future. If you wish to make sweeping changes to an article, can I suggest you discuss them on the article's talk page first and reach a consensus with other editors before applying those changes.

The reason why I updated this page was because all the information I edited was between one and three years out of date. For example, all the financial data is obviously out of date. The line of business information is factually inaccurate. There were a number of inaccurate statements Hobster (talk) 17:38, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on $673 million, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.
If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Kubek15 (Sign!) (Contribs) (UBX) 10:06, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
