Talk:SitePal

message: I have removed both the "needs wikification" and "notability" tags from this article, as well as completed some re-org, sectioning and adding a criticism section to try to balance the commercial marketing tone of the rest of the article text.
There is no doubt that SitePal is notable, if only for the negative reaction that it gets on the web. Googling "hate SitePal" returns about 48,000 entries. They are mostly blog entries, unfortunately not citable in Wikipedia. I have included three reliable reviews of Sitepal here, but may add some more if I find ones with new things to say about it. SitePal certainly meets the notability guidelines in that it is extensively written about in third party publications, although the reviews are mostly critical.
This article still needs a lot of work, in particular:
* Add more wikilinks to the article
* Rework the existing text to change it to a more NPOV tone and make it sound less like a commercial for the product
* Add more criticism and reviewer reactions to it
* Perhaps add a section detailing how talking avatars like SitePal have impacted internet design culture and caused web designers to move away from any kind of animations on web pages as being distracting and counterproductive.

thread_title: Notability Tag

message: While meeting "notability" this article reads like a PR release from the company's brochure. The weak "criticism" section does nothing but supports the ad driven style of this article. Needs NPOV rework before meeting wiki standards.

:So little [is known about the volcano], in fact, it might not actually exist. All sources found on the web of said volcano copied from the same Smithsonian listing, which has the exist same information as this wikipedia (when accessed via wayback machine, as the site is down now), down to the letter. Yes, this was copied and pasted verbatim from that listing. All other references to it online have done the same. When actually looking in google maps to the coordinates of the supposed volcano, no volcano is seen. Just trees. My hypothesis is that this volcano is a Phantom settlement, added via the Smithsonian to trap people who copied from their site without checking sources.

Phrases like "This demo was convincing enough" are opinion. If they're only the author's opinion, they should be removed; otherwise they should be cited. This whole article blatantly contradicts WP:SOAP.
It also doesn't seem notable. I vote for deletion unless its notability is established and someone is familiar enough with the band to fix these issues.

message: Hi all, I suggest that Cheras, Selangor should stop being redirected to Balakong and instead have its own article. The official boundary of the Cheras mukim in Selangor entails more than what is commonly referred to as Balakong by the locals.

Thanks GermanJoe for the heads-up and clarification in regards to my previous edits.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Russ L (talk • contribs) 
: Thank you for starting this talkpage discussion. The removed content has some basic flaws: first of all such content should be based on independent reliable sources (WP:RS) for verification. Ideally all content should be sourced (atleast in theory ...). Also, some of the information about local businesses, restaurants and hotels would be better suited for WikiVoyage, Wikipedia's sister project for travel-related information. Wikipedia articles should focus only on a summary of the most relevant encyclopedic details. A last point: any statement of opinion or subjective claim must be sourced to avoid original research and possibly non-neutral editing (WP:OR, WP:NPOV). Hope that helps to clarify my reasoning behind the reverts - you'll find more detailed information about the mentioned aspects in the blue-linked guidelines.

Talk:France Sevens

message: User:Ham105 -- Why the revert? From my perspective, the France Sevens article isn't really about one tournament, it's about three distinct sevens tournaments that have taken place in France. One in the 1990s was an invitational that was a mix of national teams and ad hoc sides; another is a leg of the World Series; a third is a leg of the European circuit. Plus those hideous blue boxes keep showing up on a few World Series tournament pages and they are ghastly. CUA 27 (talk) 04:18, 8 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: on reflection, yes I think splitting the tables from when the IRB series started does present better in this case. In saying tht, I'm not convinced it became a separate tournament between 1999 and 2000, however. The weight of available sources consider the pre-2000 editions as being part of the same tournament. Nevertheless I have reinstated separate tables. As regards the blue boxes, their "footprint" is on the heavy side; just one line on the left would have been better. -- Ham105 (talk) 04:38, 8 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:   — Thank you. I like the table organization now — the invitational and World Series tournament’s are in separate tables and subsections but within the same larger section, which conveys both the continuity and the distinction.
