Terms with commercial interest
Terms with commercial interest include company names, brand names, trademarks and service marks. A term with commercial interest should be included if it has entered the lexicon. Apart from genericized trademarks, this is measured objectively by the term’s use in at least three independent durably archived citations spanning a period of at least three years such that the following requirements hold of each citation.
- The source of the citation must be independent of any parties with economic interest in the term or the product, service, or organization to which it refers.
- The source of the citation must not identify any parties with economic interest in the term or the product, service, or organization to which it refers.
- If the term has legal protection, for instance as a trademark, the source of the citation must not indicate such.
- The source of the citation must not be written by any person or group associated with the type of product or service or the industry, as applicable.
- The source of the citation must not write about any person or group specifically associated with the product, service, or organization.
- The source of the citation must not write about the type of product or service or the industry in general.
- The text preceding and surrounding the citation must not identify the type of product or service or the industry to which the term applies, whether by stating explicitly or implicitly some feature or purpose from which its type may be surmised, or some inherent quality that is necessary for an understanding of the author’s intent.
