Is this page necessary?

I fail to see how Wikipedia benefits from having two articles on Pimsleur. The company only sells one product, so it seems to me that we only really need one page.

Personally, I'm not fussed whether that's this page or Pimsleur language learning system, but I suppose what would make most sense would be to merge the material from that article into this one as the company profile information will be of use to some people.

Mods I talked to recommended the company history be a separate page from the theoretical method page. Same as Paul Pimsleur's bio page is separate from the Pimsleur method page. I guess it's similar to how Rosetta Stone wikepdia pages are structured too. Apaka.

Advertising on Wikipedia

The whole "Audio" part is written like an advertisement. Empty slogans from the back of the box with no basis in fact. Just as someone tagged in one sentence - citation needed, indeed!
