We have added many peer-reviewed sources, and fixed copy so it doesn't sound like an advertisement. Please remove the notice.

Hello, I'm George100. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Florida Institute for Human and Machine Cognition because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. You have also removed at least one reference in the article. George100 (talk) 06:52, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

From IHMC: Yes, this is a work in progress. Have to satisfy a number of people involved. but your point is well taken. Took out one reference because it is pretty old, I believe...

Also, I don't know if you can see this, but we removed most of the promotional-sounding items, but had to add some passages to ensure accuracy. For example, the previous version to which you reverted left out some of IHMC's affiliated universities. Some of the previous descriptions of the work done at IHMC were also incorrect and confusingly worded. We were able to add some references that had been removed. Please remove the warning sign when you can.
