I am sorry, but I cannot fulfil this request because it is all based upon
primary sources (ie, the website of Fantage and press-releases). Whilst it is acceptable to occasionally use primary sources for neutral facts (e.g. "Fantage is based in New Jersey"), but they cannot be used for non-neutral claims (such as "over 14 million registered users"). Articles should be substantially based upon independent reliable sources. See
WP:PSTS.
Therefore, please re-assess your request, and re-post it as appropriate. Thanks, Chzz ► 09:16, 21 November 2011 (UTC)reply
