Removing flag for biased article

As a researcher who has greatly benefited from Addgene's plasmid repository and, notably, their extensive educational resources (e.g., their complimentary ebooks at https://www.addgene.org/educational-resources/ebooks/), it's disheartening to notice the bias flag on their Wikipedia page. To be honest, I'm struggling to identify the perceived bias in the article. I'd be more than happy to help address and improve any concerns if they're pointed out to me. I want to clarify that I have no affiliation with Addgene; I simply recognize and appreciate the immense value they bring to the scientific community. S.Y.M.B.I.O.N.T.

The COI tag was originally from 2014 it looks like quite a bit has changed since then. I didn't see any bias and couldn't find confirmation of a COI so I removed the tag. I was going to try to add some content and cleanup the page a bit, but it seems there aren't many sources about them lately, at least not that I could find. If you want to work on the page I think it could use additional (referenced) info about how they operate (eg do they still solicit deposits? where are deposits stored? that sort of thing) and some cleanup of the formatting (the list in the middle of the page looks weird and the first two sections after the lead are way too short and should probably be merged or moved).
