Exemptive relief

AdvisorShares is one of three companies to get exemptive relief from the Investment Company Act of 1940. It does not have promotional adjectives and is unbiased. I do not understand why this page cannot be published when others with extremely similar content or more outrageously promotional are allowed to remain.

Keep an eye out for edits by a particular user

User with IP address 50.242.249.233 has made repeated edits. They are replacing material with citations from reliable sources with unsourced marketing language. They also seem to want to cover-up some of the company's history, particularly litigation that it was involved in. User could be related to the company. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jigsaw574 (talkcontribs) 00:59, 6 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

First paragraph has many biased statements that need to be edited or removed

The last several sentences are biased in favor of a particular investment product, actively managed ETFs. Also they aren't sourced. They state opinions as if they are facts.Jigsaw574 (talk) 01:15, 6 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

User account named "AdvisorShares" should be deleted

It is against Wikipedia's rules to have an account with a company's name. Also, it is usually against the rules for a paid employee of the company (which this account seems to belong to) to edit their own company's Wikipedia page. Etfcanadian (talk) 18:13, 15 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

User "UserNameUnderConstruction" editing the AdvisorShares page needs to blocked

For the Advisorshares article, this user keeps writing advertorial content and seem to be related to the company. This user seems to be the same person as a previous user who was blocked because the had the user name "AdvisorShares". Before that they didn't use a user name and the ip address traced back to the town in Maryland where AdvisorShares is located. It seems more than likely that this person works for the company, is trying to make their page into a biased free advertisement and is not disclosing this, in violation of Wikipedia's rules and procedures.

It is clearly against Wikipedia's rule for company employees to edit this page for the sole purpose of self promotion. This is from the Wikipedia Companies project page that is mentioned above:
Self-Promotion/Conflict of Interest; As Wikipedia's popularity has increased, there have been instances of companies or individuals working at companies creating or modifying articles in order to make their company appear more favorably. This practice is in violation of Wikipedia guidelines and is frowned upon by the community in general and this WikiProject. If you are one of those persons, you are asked to read WP:BFAQ, which will help you to understand why this practice is an issue. ETFeditor 18:05, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

Asking why one can't include the controvies surronding the firm's fouding in this article

@Jytdog: Was the court case between AdvisorShares deleted by you because it wasn't from a primary source or because it was irrelavant? I'm not trying to cause trouble but I think as a matter of principle, transparency is good and people should be able to find out about the truth. All I'm putting down are the facts and people can make their own decisions. The case was relevant because since the beginning of AdvisorShares there were disputes over ownership of the intellectual property with Arrow Funds. Please tell me, why am I wrong?Icelandicgolfer (talk) 23:34, 24 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
