Incidents
If the company page is short enough and/or the incident is not deserving of it own page, add incidents below in sub-sections (including the points outlined in Consumer_Action_Taskforce:Sample/Incident/Help) without linking/creating an incident page.
If the company has various incidents listed and/or this page is getting too long, create subsections linking to each incident while linking to the main article and including a short summary. To link to the page use the "Hatnote" or "Main" templates.
If the company has numerous incidents then format them in a table (see Amazon).
