This entire page needs to be rewritten so it has a neutral viewpoint and not looking like it's your personal CV for your career. The major problem with wiki pages (and this website as a whole) are pages written by the people they're about and using this website as a promotional/advertising/CV dump. history is rewritten, things are omitted, etc.etc. This is why it's a terrible idea for people to edit their own pages, and worse than that is to proclaim in public that they are editing their own pages. 59.102.90.59 (talk) 23:03, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

This wiki page has been only written by one person and that person is Simon Harris. He admits to it in this talk section without any shame. There are no citations for most of this shameless self promotion that's written like a resumé. This page needs to be deleted or rewritten by someone that isn't Simon.

Talk:Simon Kuper

message: I don't understand how Simon Kuper is a *British* author born in Uganda to South African parents, and raised in Holland. Does he have dual (or multiple) citizenship? Why stress British? Is it clear that he is definitely British? One of the links describes him as British, but near the bottom says "About Simon Kuper: Simon Kuper was born in South Africa, grew up in Leiden, spent time in London and now lives in Paris." This contradicts the Uganda thing, and I don't understand why we stress British anyway, even if he has somehow acquired a British passport from 'spending time' in London. Surely Ugandan or South African are just as valid? Or Dutch.
Do his parents have dual citizenship and he inherited this somehow?
I would like to remove the word 'British', unless there is an authoritative reference, or an explanation of what I am missing here.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Five Mile Walk (talk • contribs) 17:51, 24 September 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things

message: Cradle to cradle design might be a concept apart from the book, but the overlap is substantial, and the articles are a long way from being distinct enough to justify separate articles. I assume it was made without realising that this article existed. 
I propose that Cradle to cradle design be merged into this article - if no objections in the next week or three, I'll merge it. If I remember :). --Singkong2005 talk 03:43, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge from Cradle to cradle design  

message: The authors leave out some important information. They include no citations to support various claims. And while they talk about the book's paper, they do not tell readers that it is actually polypropylene film, rather than one of many available and far more benign bioplastics. They also leave out any recycling mark. So when the book is discarded it will not return to nature, nor will it be reborn as another product. Instead, it will probably end up as foreign waste in a regular paper recycling stream. Thus some would argue the book contradicts its own thesis.
removed original research here until a citation can be found and the text rewritten as neutral.

replies: text:  Yes, "prominent" in this context meant "leading, important, or well-known" - all of which describe Mr. Buenaventura as a banker prior to his appointment as Governor. He could very well have been a low-profile crony until said appointment made him prominent, but he was not. Hence the use of the term is not redundant. Besides, last time I checked, notability was the standard for Wikipedia inclusion (WP:N), not prominence; it is not automatically the case that someone is prominent simply because they are notable. -Wormcast (talk) 16:39, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

message: "It has a slightly more commercial sound than their first album, with both "It's a Rainy Day, Sunshine Girl" and
 "No Harm" (also known as "Daddy, Take the Banana") being free-form rock-outs based on simple rhythms."
Commercial sound = not quite NPOV
Even if it were, why would try to use "free-form rock-outs" to prove that an album is "more commercial"?
Further, why is this in the summary? How about historical context? Reception? Relation to the band's career as a whole? I would avoid describing specific songs unless there's an explicitly good reason for doing so (which there sure can be.)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.23.236.17 (talk) 15:24, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

But I don't believe that the track is also known as that.   Not really.   It's always been titled "No Harm" on various releases of the album that I have seen, and there's no citation for the claim that it has an alternate name, so I have deleted that "also known" statement.184.41.105.22 (talk) 10:34, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

:The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, which has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.
