How are we deciding what companies to add information about? Chadlupkes 20:27, 28 Dec 2005 (UTC)

There are no set criteria at this time. As such, it is basically a matter of whatever catches the writer's attention. In my case, it is currently whatever shows up in the Shadow Stock screen run by the American Association of Individual Investors. Since I can't afford to buy everything that is in the screen, doing these increases the likelihood that I will get one of the better ones in the screen. But that's just my criteria for which ones I will do.

There is no reason why the basis for decision can't be different for each person choosing to do a write up on a company. Remember, most of us are volunteers, and often the best pay in that situation is the ability to do that which is of interest to the volunteer. Indeed the only requirement that I can really see making, is that shares of the company should be available via one of the exchanges through a broker. --Kirk 01:03, 29 Dec 2005 (UTC)
