Sorry about all this bullshit

The article seems fine, to me. It's a little promotional in tone, and reads slightly more like a press release or marketing document than an encyclopedia article, but it's nothing that's beyond fixing. Thanks for your contributions, and sorry for the shitty welcome you've received. Throwaway85 (talk) 19:42, 28 June 2011 (UTC)

Also, as below, don't remove speedy notices from pages you create. It's a natural impulse, but it looks bad to the people going through deciding whether or not to keep the article. We'll wait for an admin to pass by and take a look at the CSD notice, then if you'd like a hand getting the article up to snuff I'd be happy to take a look at it with you.

Removing Speedy at Cinetic rights management

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Cinetic rights management, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, then you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Click here to contest this speedy deletion and appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 19:48, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
