History copied from company website[edit]

Hello, just stumbled across this article on Detonics, the "company history" section to me reads like some kind of promotional piece the company wrote about themselves. I went to Detonics' website, and sure enough the company history section on the Wikipedia article is almost word for word copy and pasted from Detonics own website at http://www.detonicsdefense.com/history/

The first paragraph under "company history" in the Wikipedia article are word for word copied from the company's website. The second paragraph only has one sentence removed, otherwise is a word for word copy. The next two paragraphs only the opening sentence is reworded, otherwise a word for word copy. The first and last sentence of the fifth paragraph are again copied word for word.

I don't consider myself to be involved enough to make edits myself, just a loyal reader of Wikipedia and I hope this helps.208.107.88.177 (talk) 03:34, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
