I think this article and the one on Supercomputing and Visualization Center of Madrid are self-promotional and do not have a neutral point of view. It is debatable that the computer is the most powerful of Spain. It is the case according to the July 2011 TOP500 list, but after the release of the list another more powerful computer has been announced, as covered in third party news. I think that if the article emphasizes on rankings, this point should be covered. Otherwise, I suggest to write "one of the most powerful" instead of "the most powerful". My attempts to make the text less self-promotional have been reverted.129.105.199.91 (talk) 21:14, 28 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

The TOP500 list is the woldwide reference of the most powerful supercomputers as Green500 is of the most ecological ones. These are the valid references to say that Magerit is the most powerful and ecological supercomputer of Spain in July 2011. If we consider announces, all of us can announce that our PC is the most powerful supercomputer of the world and I think this kind of biased asserts must not be included in Wikipedia. Include promotional information (seems to be a paid article in a magazine) about BSC without some reputable reference is vandalism. When the announced machine pass the TOP500 test we can compare the performance results and update the articles. --81.33.166.51 (talk) 17:26, 30 October 2011 (UTC)Reply
