Talk:Author Services Inc.

message: The most recent information that I have is that as of December 31, 1993, all shares of Author Services Inc. were transfered to the Church of Spiritual Technology as part of the secret IRS closing agreement. It seems very likely that the RTC oversees operation of ASI, as RTC does with all Hubbard copyrights that went to CST via Authors Family Trust B, but proving this in a crystal-clear manner among the fog and nested corporations of Scientology could be tricky. --AndroidCat 04:13, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  The above editor, User:Misou, has made precisely five edits to Wikipedia as of this writing. Author Services Inc. is the first and only article they have edited, and it was to revert my previous edit. For a brand-new user to jump in swinging and tossing insults like this screams "sockpuppet". wikipediatrix 02:26, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  The only personal attacks here were uttered by you: "Just stick to the Wikipedia rules, Wikipediatrix! I have reverted it back to the unbiased version." And now, "what good reason to you have to vandalize this article?" Your lack of Good Faith from the getgo leaves me no reason to communicate further with you. wikipediatrix 02:44, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Apologies, if you wish. I take the "biased" back. I am trying to strictly apply the rules I just read. You just had cut 70% of my text to zero, even though it was founded. What would you think if somebody does this to you? Would you think this is vandalism? I thought that. Thanks for the last change. This actually makes sense. So I will see if I can find a more direct link (the names are actually on that websites, which is where I found them). Misou 02:58, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Current ASI owners vs controllers

message: The first paragraph of this isn't necessarily fully encompassing according to "The Culvert Chronicles. Laurelton, N.Y.: Feb 24-Mar 2, 2011. Vol. 6, Iss. 5;  pg. 15, 1 pgs" . I propose we adjust to include musical and theatrical works as well:
“Author Services Inc. (ASI) represents the literary, theatrical and musical works of L. Ron Hubbard, and is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Church of Spiritual Technology."
Additionally, according to the above article, we might also include that 19 of the books have been on the NYT best sellers list, and translated into 72 languages -- both significant additions:
“Since its incorporation ASI manages L. Ron Hubbard's personal, business and literary affairs. After Hubbard’s death in 1986, ASI continued to represent his literary and musical works worldwide. Nineteen of his books have been on The New York Times best sellers list, and his works have been translated into 72 languages.”  Scifilover386 (talk) 17:59, 7 June 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Minor edits 

message: Heads up: According to the Secretary of State of California site (a primary but quite definitive source), Author Services Inc. was merged out of existence in 2015. At some point the article will have to be updated with the name of the successor company when is available from a reliable source. (Probably the new Galaxy Press, Inc, but don't cite me.)
