'''Keep''': Disclosure: I am the primary writer for the Don Gilman entry. Don is very well known in the simulation community for keeping alive the Harpoon simulation following the financial collapse of Three-Sixty. In addition, he has moved the simulation to a new level, with professional military organizations, such as the Australian Department of Defense and United States Naval Institute, using it as a training aid for military professionals. Perhaps if I''' stressed the simulation's professional aspect more''', the article would be more acceptable?
