Time to remove maintenance template?[edit]

As a relative newbie editor, I don't feel like taking it upon myself to remove the template without some consultation. There's been a lot of editing on this topic since the template was put up a year+ ago. To me, the article does not read like an advertisement and references appear to be in keeping with protocol. While no doubt many feel there's "more to the story" -- I personally know people who believe "the truth" is far deeper and darker than has been revealed -- this article seems informative to the general encyclopedia-reader looking for information about the company. So...time to remove the template? I'd like to do it myself just for practice, but of course do not insist on that. --Jhoughton1 (talk) 14:47, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It has been more than two years since this comment and dozens of edits later. To my eyes, this article doesn't read like an advertisement. I will be bold and remove it. If someone disagrees, please put it back and add your reasoning here. --Replysixty (talk) 20:56, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Criticism[edit]

Hi, I’ve added the “criticism” section back to describe the issues around data collection and the name change. I’m open to renaming this section to something like Name Change Controversy? Also, if you are going to remove this section , this would be for the third time, at least be civil enough to post on this talk thread. It was discussed that the editing users were utilizing IP ranges from the corporate network (see edit history). Patrick Fleischman (talk) 11:22, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
