:* Centiare developed a set of custom extensions that allow users to control and protect their own '''''Directory''''' page content.  Unlike Wikipedia and other wiki sites that do not provide this feature, this means NO ONE ELSE can edit, vandalize, or otherwise interfere with your protected '''''Directory''''' pages.

:* Centiare supports an advocate point-of-view (APOV) for protected '''''Directory''''' page content. While '''''Main''''' page articles are reserved for traditional neutral point-of-view (NPOV) subjects (e.g., Accounting, Aeronautics, Auditing, Banking, etc.), which are subject to open-editing capabilities, the protected '''''Directory''''' page content can advertise, promote, advocate, and provide sales contact information for specific companies, locations, branches, stores, franchises, products, services, individuals, etc.

Legitimate individuals and organizations that accurately identify themselves will be able to "claim ownership" of their '''''Directory''''' space(s).  If there are ever cases of competitive conflict over a '''''Directory''''' page (e.g., [http://www.amazon.com Amazon.com] and the ''Amazon Coffee and Tea Company'') both want ownership of the "'''Amazon'''" '''''Directory''''' space, Centiare administrators will adjudicate the claims and implement a fair resolution for both parties.

:* Centiare incorporates semantic tagging in all '''''Directory''''' entries that enables users to quickly search and/or browse '''''Directory''''' listings in conjunction with a number of different filters and search parameters (e.g., industry, zip code, city/state/country, etc.), to provide more focused and accurate searches.
