message: It would be nice to have a history of this product. Right now there isn't even a date for the first release, and the CAD and Parametric Technology Corporation articles give conflicting information. --S Roper 14:12, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

message: :Image:ProE Splash screen.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:37, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I've removed all but the official site link here for discussion:
* MCAD Central - Online Community of Pro/ENGINEER users - discussion group EL XXX, not focused on ProE
* Olaf Corten's Online Pro/ENGINEER utilities free, ad-supported. could be shilling for consulting services.
* Pro/E non profit organization with jobs & PTC tips, tricks and announcements Where is contact info? taxpayer id ?
* The Pro/E FAQ - Tips and tricks for Pro/E users low-function copy of company page???
* Free Pro/ENGINEER Tips and Tutorial (Pro/E 2001, Wildfire 1.0, Wildfire 2.0, Wildfire 3.0, Wildfire 4.0) Who sponsors this? No real-world contact info.
* Pro/E & PTC User Community This says it's the "official users group" for ProE.
These are all pretty questionable links per WP:EL, and some look like WP:SPAM--Ronz 15:06, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: PTC/User is billed as "The official user organization for people who use Pro/ENGINEER®, Windchill®, Arbortext®, Mathcad®, ProductView™ and other PTC products." I have been using Pro/ENGINEER for about 11 years and this site is a huge wealth of knowledge, either in their email archives or the many seasoned users who participate on the site. PTC does monitor the threads on PTC/User and I personally have had discussions with PTC employees as a result of questions I have posed. Posting this link in "External links" does not constitute SPAM in my opinion. Ditto for Olaf Corten's website. Though it is ad-supported, he does a lot of work with creating benchmarks for computer setups to gauge if a system is working at its potential with Pro/E. Olaf has a significant prescense, or he did when I was active a few years back, on the PTC/User site. My 2¢. ♫ Bitch and Complain Sooner ♫ 17:49, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I would have guessed at those being the sites most worth keeping, but forums aren't normally linkable, as I read WP:EL. They would have to have other worthwhile content at least. If you take out the forum, it all looks like advertising or restricted use. Please correct me if I'm wrong. DCDuring 18:54, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. I'd rather have the links hold closely to WP:EL, and encourage editors to add references to the article. This article seems to attract a lot of spam and low-quality links, while the content of the article itself remains almost unchanged. --Ronz 19:19, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

text: Olaf Corten is not shilling for anyone. His was one of the first reliable exchanges. Three d dave (talk) 20:35, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

text: Ditto that on Olaf Corten. He was around helping Pro/E users back when the Internet was useful. Pre-google, pre-adcrap :( As for content, he's got a bunch of tools for benchmarking different versions of Pro/E, a bunch of utilities for use with Pro/E, and various articles illustrating features and methods to use the Pro, etc etc. Or did, I haven't been there in a while. Things often turn to poo on the internet nowadays  116.231.73.114 (talk) 01:35, 8 April 2017 (UTC)

message: As Parametric_feature_based_modeler redirects to solid modeling should the links be consolidated, and perhaps the text cleaned up a bit? It was confusing to me as a novice looking for information —Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.129.251.17 (talk) 04:29, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
