Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Water in New Zealand. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

Hi Velella, the text I added is true, I follow the industry closely and Aqua Naida has in fact become one of the first companies to export bulk water from New Zealand. If necessary you can verify the information through press reports or by contacting the company directly.


 * It may well be true, but what is needed is a reliable source external to the company to verify the information. Having found such a source it is also worth asking whether this is actually significant information in the article to which it is being added. If the article was List of bulk exporters of mineral water, the the addition would seem to be appropriate. In the context of New Zealand water however, noting that one company exports bulk water does not seem very relevant - should we perhaps list all the bottled water companies and bulk exporters ? I think not. The prominent addition of the company's URL also smacked strongly of a promotional purpose behind the addition. Regards  Velella  Velella Talk  09:18, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
