I have created the article. Thank you for submitting it! This is also to let you know that I am going to insert a section on the MV Seaman Guard Ohio incident there and reduce the treatment of the incident at the ship article to a brief mention. Yngvadottir (talk) 00:05, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

Well I don't think you understand what you're doing. This is an article about ADVANFORT... NOT SG OHIO. Yes you can put the SG OHIO in the article but not in the 1ST PARAGRAPH. Who are you a competing company???Jmartin77 (talk) 01:28, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

the WP:LEAD section of the article covers a summary of the article, highlighting the important aspects of the subject as it has been covered by the reliable sources. To NOT cover the incident in the lead is to violation WP:NPOV by not accurately representing the major (only?) reason the subject has received coverage. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 02:27, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

JMartin77, I've now put a section about the incident into the article, keeping it as short as possible. If you look at the number of references you can see this has received considerable press coverage; RedPen is correct, it has to be there. What we need now is more about the company. I can see some material about the company's activities in the references you have already used, but I wonder if you can provide any information on the history. For example: who founded the company, and do the names of the ships indicate that it was previously known as Seaman Guard, or that it acquired a company called Seaman Guard? Yngvadottir (talk) 02:35, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

I really don't understand why there needs to be so much in there other than a quick description. SG OHIO is already an article unto itself. Most of the article is about the SG OHIO still. 70.169.167.104 (talk) 18:12, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

My apologies; I shortened it as much as I could, but I moved the treatment of the incident from the ship article to the company article as being a more appropriate place to put it. As I say, you can help by pointing to more data about the company itself to offset that; I've done some hunting today in both the sources you had and Google News, and added a little bit, but see the questions above, and also if you can find news articles on any other areas the company has operated in, besides Benin, Somalia, and Panama, that would help too.
