Neutrality
2015.01.03: Someone disputes the neutrality of this article, can someone point out what part is in dispute? Ed

Older stuff
A link to a Freewhere BACnet utility was removed as spam on April 18th 2007... I believe that this is a useful link as it points to one of the only free BACnet explorer like utilities out there. It does come from a commercial site but they are not charing for it so how is it spam?
 * Freeware BACnet Explorer

Removed Link to Bacnet Explorer
Chipkin does not charge for a limited sample of what the utility can do, but does charge is you want the full version or to use it in commercial applications. This link appears to be nothing more then an advertisement to me and I would be surprised if funvill was not an employee or closely affiliated with Chipkin. SoManySpammers 21:13, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Conformance Classes obsolete / BBIBs
The article talks about Conformance Classes under "Conformance Classes and the Device PICS".

The concept of conformance classes is obsolete. It is not part of the standard 135-2004.

The new concept is BIBB (BACnet Interoperable Building Blocks) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.64.72.252 (talk) 14:06, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:BACnetLargeLogo.png
Image:BACnetLargeLogo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 21:26, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Outgoing Links
The outgoing links such as see also do not add value to people looking for information on bacnet. They seem to suggest that this page is a switchboard for members of various bacnet user groups and bacnet developers. That is not the intention of this (or any other ) Wikipedia article. Wikipedia exists to provide accurate information for readers who wish to learn about a subject. I will remove links in a few weeks time unless someone joins this discussion and argues persuasively that these outgoing links are consistent with Wikipedia’s requirements which can be read at “What Wikipedia is not” – specifically read “Wikipedia is not a mirror or a repository of links, images, or media files” which specifically says wiki is not “Mere collections of public domain or other source material”.

The link to Brightcore is a link to a page which has information about a minor commercial product and does not add value to this article. EdwinBtys (talk) 15:47, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

Does anyone have any objections to the removal of the link spam on the article page? EdwinBtys (talk) 13:10, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

Since no-one disagrees I am going to remove the links.EdwinBtys (talk) 13:41, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

BACnet Testing
This section of the article is useful for people interested in testing but doesnt provide information on bacnet. If you are interested then please make a specific page and move the text. I am going to remove the section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pchipkin (talk • contribs) 14:15, April 13, 2010
