The problem of external PR companies is (IMHO) associated with the kind of articles that each wiki allows. If you focus on concepts and principles and more about the thing in general, rather than a destinct product from a specific company, you might be able to avoid a lot of problems as there is no place for PR companies to land. Focus on [[car]] not on [[Mercedes L-400 2006 edition 1,5l diesel with ipod socket]].
en: has articles on types of products ([[videocassette recorder]]), lines of products ([[Casio Exilim]]) and on individual products themselves ([[Ford RS200]]).
For edits from companies, the main benefit they could bring to the wiki would be references for the sort of detail that product geeks really want to see.
