Talk:Gloria Jean's Coffees

message: There seems to be just blatant facts that are delineated on the page. This is simply not good enough for an article. I'm going to try and go throughout, and remove things like, hearsay (i.e. quoting individuals). It shouldn't read like journalism, and Wikipedia shouldn't contain primary research. I thoroughly suggest increasing citations to increase academic rigor. Twigfan (talk) 09:57, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

message: The Controversies section needs to be validated or removed. 
The fact that 2 senior members of GJ's board are involved in a large church, and someone, seemingly not likeing the church, has decided the involvement is dodgey... doesn't make it a valid section.
At best it makes it biased information. Biased information is discouraged by wiki.
Let's put a time frame on validation or removal. say Feb 1 '09.
Anyone restoring the Controversies section would be vandilising the page after this date, and reported as such.

message: === Irvine photo & Mercy Ministries reference ===
I have moved the Peter Irvine photo to the section in which he is mentioned, and restored the Gloria Jean's overall logo to the top of the page. This is because the Gloria Jean's logo is relevant to the entire article while the Irvine photo is only relevant to one section. 
I am not convinced that the Mercy Ministries/irvine reference is worth including in this article at all, and would be interested in the views of others.Euryalus 06:05, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Image:Gloria Jeans.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Gloria Jeans.jpg

message: I note the ACL's Make It Count event for which the $30,000 donation was made, from the reports, included the following topics: indigenous welfare, refugees, climate change,  maintaining the status of marriage as the union of a man and a woman, chaplaincy, sexualisation of children, protection for genuine refugees, border protection, media classification, school chaplains, working towards a more moral, compassionate and caring society.  Who knows the actual motivation for the Gloria Jeans donation? Bdoublehume (talk) 14:13, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: The obvious anti-Gloria Jeans POV tone of the article and the ACL conection

message: I have no connection with Gloria Jeans or Hillsong.  I am only interested in Wikipedia as an NPOV encyclopedia.  This Wikipedia page is no longer an encyclopedia - it has become a platform primarily for anti-Gloria Jeans propaganda.  Five comments   1   It appears the alleged 'good things' done by Gloria Jeans are not reported.  Maybe it is a measure of humility by those who give and those who receive. Within Wikipedia these 'good things' have become the subject of numerous legalistic [citation needed] tags.    2  Conversely, that which is deemed as 'Gloria Jeans negative' is very widely circulated by social media and laundered and reported on sympathetic blogs - masquerading as news sources.  These are then detailed, with citations, on Gloria Jeans Wikipedia.  3  To me it is sad when (worthy) third parties are dragged in and made to pay eg  RU OK and WithHeart.  In industrial relations these types of actions are termed 'secondary boycotts'.   Secondary boycotts are banned under sections 45D to 45E of the Australian Trade Practices Act.    4  There is now a significant component of the article relating to recent criticism.  5 All this just compromises Wikipedia as an authoritative NPOV reference source.
