Conflict of Interest?
[edit]This article needs some serious work, as it reads like the website for the product itself would. I also suspect that one or more of the editors that have been editing this page were either the author himself, or people who regularly use his forum and were adding original research based on posts there.
I really don't have the time to give this article the attention it needs, but a few tips for anyone who does:
- Don't be afraid to remove stuff, especially uncited section, or sections that seem like original research
- Avoid as much as possible critique of editors that were in direct competition, unless these critiques are cited by professional reviews at the time and were notable
- Stick to the facts about the editor, not how it was created... we want what, where, when, not so much the why or the how (unless you have good secondary sources)

- I couldn't help myself, I had to get rid of some of the worst sections of this article. I am definitely a reductionist -- less is more. The fewer words you can use to transmit information, the better, so I removed some ugly, unneeded lines that were clearly written by either the author or a former user that knew the author well.
