Something to do with "value transfer systems" apparently.

This article makes an interesting test case, because it is well
written and structured, using references and an infobox. The problem
is it's essentially nothing more than what one would expect to find on
the "about" page of any corporate website.

Hi folks,

MyWikiBiz (Greg) is willing to abide by Wikipedia policies, but has second
thoughts about what he agreed upon with Jimbo. He has some alternate
proposals (and opinions) on his talk page at [[User talk:MyWikiBiz]].

Thanks,

DP
