Comment: @Natiewing:, per your help request, I would suggest starting with the following (note this is not everything that may need cleaned, just a good start): 1) Remove the bullet point list of features. You can give a brief overview of what it does, but listing all the features is not encyclopedic. That is something for the company website. 2) Remove "company awards" section. Unless the awards are notable for Wikipedia (Grammy, Emmy, etc.), it is just the company bragging. Likely well-deserved, but not encyclopedic. 3) (and I will do this for you) Re-order the headings to comply with manual of style. CNMall41 (talk) 22:20, 31 October 2025 (UTC)
