message: The screenshot of the applications part is now out of date as of today (the Growl 1.1 release) - it's been redesigned. If anyone gets a chance it'd would be nice if that screen was updated or replaced. SeanMooney 18:18, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Applications screenshot 

message: :Image:Growltunes2.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 ensure 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:Growltunes2.jpg

message: AS the vast majority of the apps that are compatible with Growl have their own notifications, I'd like to see some info in the article about the practical advantages of Growl. Is it in actual fact just a fancy toy? Centrepull (talk) 08:07, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Practical Advantages? 

message: I flagged this article with multiple issues, because:
*Tone: Article looks like it was written from a non-authoritative source who appear to be unclear about their knowledge of the subject.
*Confusing and Unclear: This article appears to make the Growl software appear as if it might be malware, and describes very technical details about the inner workings of Growl without clearly describing what it does.
*No Lead Section: Somebody needs to write a neutral introduction to describe what Growl actually is and does in a single paragraph.
*Neutral point of view: It appears as if some of this article was written by someone who has a complaint about Growl, particularly the following paragraph:
**The application appears to be non-malicious; however users may not even know growl was installed until an update is requested.  While damage to a user's system is not immediately apparent after accidental installation, the program may reappear without warning, suggesting uninstall techniques on the manufacturer's website are ineffectual.
**(This complaint needs to be neutralized, and should be combined with the Adobe CS5 issue in its own section with citations.)
*No Sources: Even though there are a few sources around the article, the major portion of the article cites no sources or references. If anyone has a reference to verify this information (either on the Growl website or a forum somewhere around the web) please add them in.

thread_title:  Multiple Issues 

message: When going to http://www.growlforwindows.com and trying to download the installer, my anti-virus gave a warning, so I investigated: https://www.virustotal.com/nl/file/40f47b54aa7ea3dda36fb3bccc3f6c03bd2139cbc8860955c015e94fb67abd1a/analysis/ 
Result: DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS FILE!!! It contains virut which infects all your files.
I do not know whether the original creator of Growl for Windows uploaded this, or that a malicious hacker changed the installer on the server, but the file that is on there is not to be trusted.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.21.3.151 (talk) 13:38, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
