I suspect this because the contributor added a external link to the article's lead section. I have just warned the IP, in case the IP still represents the same person. Cheers, Unforgettableid (talk) 02:50, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Unforgettableid, I am sorry but I don't understand. If you have a problem with that external link, why don't correct it. Why add a CIO tag? -- Mdd (talk) 12:55, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Anyway I removed the link and the CIO template. -- Mdd (talk) 18:43, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Unencyclopaedic Tone[edit]

May I suggest removing the second paragraph from the Work heading, in particular the line "Heylighen's scientific work covers an extremely wide range of subjects, exemplifying his intellectual curiosity and fundamentally transdisciplinary way of thinking." - this seems rather sycophantic and not in line with an encyclopaedic tone?
