Can somebody tell the readers what this company actually does? Does it maufacture something? Does it provide a useful service? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Marek1975 (talk • contribs) 14:10, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Copyright
The copyright of the text itself is not the major problem. The issue here is that most fo the text I just removed (again) is sourced to copies of documents hosted on Nigel Smith's Langbar Action Group website, and there is no evidence that he owns the copyright to this material. It is also, of course, an unreliable source in itself, the documents are copies of rpimary sources so it violates WP:OR, and Smith has a conflict of interest in promoting his side of the story, which is why in another ticket we have a complaint from one of the living individuals named in the removed text.

 * The contributor who wrote OTRS is now indefinitely blocked on Wikipedia for copying multiple sources into many articles, which certainly lends credence to Guy's concern. The COI is also a major issue. The body of the article has been rewritten from scratch. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 02:00, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

“Investors, most of whom purchased after Pearson came aboard, lost as much 100 million.”

“In 2008, shareholders in Langbar International.”

This article needs to be deleted. It's dreadful. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:B478:EC00:4D3D:5811:2C9D:BEEA (talk) 14:52, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
