   Our Netencyclo Pages provide instant answers to simple queries about people, places, things, etc. It is good at answering Who-Is and What-Is questions. However, Netencyclo is neither a natural-language search engine nor a human-powered search service. We recommend that you consult your clergy regarding morality, or the philosophy department of your local college regarding the meaning of life.
   
   
7. How can I submit a correction to Netencyclo?
   
   Most of the information displayed in the Netencyclo window is copyrighted by our content source partners. However, if you are referring to an entry from Wikipedia -- the user-edited encyclopedia -- we invite you to edit this article yourself, directly at the source.
   
   Start by creating an account at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page. Once logged in, you'll be able to browse to the article you want to edit and make the appropriate changes. Next time Netencyclo updates our content from Wikipedia, your modification will appear (assuming another Wikipedia member doesn't modify it again).
   
   In most other cases, we cannot edit the content ourselves due to copyright issues. But if you send it to our Support Team, we will forward your message on to the company whose content we have licensed. Make sure to include details of the Netencyclo page you are referring to.
   
   
8. Why don't you have an entry on me/my company/my cat?
   
   Netencyclo strives to provide the most authoritative definitions and explanations available on the Internet today.

Rather, we are concentrating our efforts on collections of reliable, authoritative information that we deem to be of value to our user base.
   
   As for businesses, Netencyclo currently contains information on public companies traded on NYSE and NASDAQ. We expect to expand to cover other exchanges, including international bourses.
