Talk:Hilton Worldwide

message: Hello, I am back with an additional edit request on behalf of Hilton. This time, I am providing sourcing for content in the "Hilton in popular culture" section, where there is currently a tag. I have provided markup below, and noted content changes further down in the edit request:
Keith Richards and Mick Jagger performed in the East Penthouse on the 45th floor of the New York Hilton on October 28, 1965. The piano they used still sits in that room today.
John Lennon and Yoko Ono honeymooned in the presidential suite at the Hilton Amsterdam where they hosted their famous "Bed-In" for a full week in 1969.
In 1971, Diamonds Are Forever was filmed at the Las Vegas Hilton.
On April 3, 1973, Dr. Martin Cooper made the world's first cell phone call in front of the New York Hilton Midtown. A press conference was held at the hotel later that day to mark the milestone.
The Bodyguard with Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner was filmed at the Fontainebleau Hilton in Miami in 1992.
In 1995, the James Bond movie GoldenEye was filmed at the Langham Hilton.
The Insider was filmed in 1999 at the Seelbach Hilton.
In 2006, several movies including Spider-Man 3, Michael Clayton and American Gangster were filmed at the New York Hilton.
Conrad Hilton (played by actor Chelcie Ross) features as a major character in the third season of Mad Men, as lead character Don Draper creates a series of ad campaigns for Hilton Hotels. The Drapers travel during one episode to the Cavalieri Hilton in Rome, though the scenes were actually shot at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles.
At the rotating wheel space station in Stanley Kubrick's film 2001: A Space Odyssey, visitors can stay at a Hilton hotel. Hilton's logo appears prominently in the space station's lounge.
Content changes:
* Currently, the article says Diamonds Are Forever was filmed at Flamingo Hilton. However, according to sourcing, and the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino article, the film was shot at Las Vegas Hilton, so I've updated the sentence and link accordingly.
* Currently, the sentence about Martin Cooper mentions the "New York Hilton". I disambiguated the property by replacing with "New York Hilton Midtown" and added links to Wikipedia articles for both the property and Martin Cooper.
* For the sentence starting "In 2006, six movies...", I changed "six" to "several".
Finally, I should note, I was able to find a Hilton source to confirm the performance by Keith Richard and Mick Jagger. However, I struggled to find secondary coverage, and I am not sure about sourcing to confirm: "The piano they used still sits in that room today." I will let the reviewing editor decide if these sentences are worth keeping, or assist with finding appropriate sourcing.
If editors are comfortable replacing the current "Hilton in popular culture" section with the above markup, then I hope the tag that says "This section needs additional citations for verification" can be removed. Thanks again for your help. Inkian Jason (talk) 19:38, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

replies: text:  Thanks for your help. I'm not sure I agree with removing the "External links" section, which almost all company articles have, but I won't press the matter and I appreciate you reviewing this request. Inkian Jason (talk) 20:48, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sourcing for the "Hilton in popular culture" section 

message: The Suite Life of Zack & Cody is set in a "Tipton" hotel, an homage to the Hilton hotels. Like Hiltons, the Tipton hotels are an international chain; the series focuses on its Boston location, which the Hilton also has (Hilton Back Bay), and contains the character "London Tipton", a rich young woman parodying Paris Hilton, both of whom have a true blood relation to their namesake hotel chain's founder.
Would this be a close enough connection to add to the Popular Culture section, or should the section only include instances of actual Hilton hotels? SomeDee (talk) 17:53, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

message: I think we should be covering wokeness in room design by brands such as Hilton. Things that are anethetical to human prosperity such as blinding lights all night that are intended to sense occupancy and turn the lights off. Or thermostats that are made to not be set at temperatures that guests want them at. And things that guests do to try to work around these ridiculous measures such as taping portable handwarmers to thermostats so that they can cool the room to an appropriate temperature.
Hey by the way if you’re reading this in the Hilton hotel room, getting a portable handwarmer from the outdoor section of your store and taping it to the cooling thermostat really helps it to cool properly. Wiki-pee-idea (talk) 03:26, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
