:::I stand by my claim that these 2 analytical works are not self-published. Perhaps you are unaware of the nature of a corporation. Briefly, a corporation is a legal entity within its state of founding that has all the rights of an individual. Stating 'you are the research firm' reveals a lack of understanding of business entities in general and of the Akasha Research Firm in particular. This firm is its own entity and has multiple individuals that work with it, creating and reviewing documents in a variety of fields. I am not the Akasha Research Firm. I am an employee of said organization, and not the only one. [[User:Calebjbaker|Calebjbaker]] ([[User talk:Calebjbaker#top|talk]]) 22:21, 4 March 2016 (UTC) |

::::If you search the corporate databases of every state in the USA, you will find this research firm. The 2 analytical works in question were reviewed by editorial staff prior to publication. The Akasha Research Firm (ARF) is a philanthropic organization that adheres to the principles of open access and public domain works. To this end, ARF makes their publications available in local public and academic libraries for free, and the librarians at these institutions appreciate the firm's knowledge dissemination techniques. All ARF expects in return for these efforts is reader feedback and development of a community of users.
