A few new rules are now in place on the wiki: Don't edit farm. Edit farming is when a user makes multiple edits to artificially increase their edit count. This includes making unconstructive or unhelpful edits to a page. Descriptions must be written as detailed as possible. Avoid simplifying elements of the identity, such as using "the company name" to describe the company name. If the company name is written in a non-Latin script, it is advised to use an application such as Google Translate to scan or write the script. If the script is unintelligible, you may add the {{TransliterationNeeded}} template, but only if it is truly unintelligible (i.e. blurry or deteriorated). All articles must contain at least one external link or reference. Companies must be thoroughly researched, and more references and/or links are encouraged. If there's scarce to little information available on the Internet, but the company and/or logo is verifiable (e.g. conforms to one of our notability guidelines), use the {{CompanyInvestigation}} template. Only use the {{CompanyInvestigation}} template when describing companies with very little information on the Internet. This is not an excuse for writers to skip background sections of a company.
