Good morning all, |

As a new contributor to Wikipedia, I am still getting used to the rules and regs. I totally understand that advertising and promotional materials are not permitted. However, the last round of edits I made to Sentry Siren's page were strictly fact and were actually correcting misinformation that existed on the original version of the page I found yesterday. I am going to republish my last round of edits - I sincerely hope everyone will stop undoing my edits as the sole intent of the post is to correct bad information regarding the different Sentry models. |

I am going to republish my last round of edits - I sincerely hope everyone will stop undoing my edits as the sole intent of the post is to correct bad information regarding the different Sentry models.
