DLR Group

Just a note - external links should go in an external link section, not in the prose section. Excirial ^{(Contact me,Contribs)} 19:45, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

I've looked at the DLR Group article again (and edited it some), and I still feel that it is excessively promotional. Therefore, I haven't removed the "advert" template. The lead section is of particular concern. --Orlady (talk) 21:17, 22 June 2010 (UTC) IMO, it's not "on a par" with the other articles you mention on my talk page. A good article about an architecture firm should include more independently-reported content covering the firm's history, notable projects it has designed, etc. Articles that focus on "what it is now and what it offers to clients," like the current version of DLR Group, look remarkably like promotional brochures -- and unlike encyclopedia articles. --Orlady (talk) 21:23, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
