message: Social Banking redirects to this page. I believe Social Banking is different. According to Gartner Group in an article from 6 Feb 2008, titled: Gartner Says Social Banking Platforms Threaten Traditional Banks for Control of Financial Relationships
Social banking is the combination of social trends, such as green practices, social entrepreneurship, and peer-to-peer (P2P) lending and financial planning via social networks, with banking products and services. Venture capital investment in financial social networks (FSNs) such as Zopa, Prosper and Lending Club, as well as Virgin USA's acquisition of a majority stake in CircleLending point to the growing prevalence of FSNs and increasing consumer interest in this area.
I suggest a new article called Social Banking.

message: I think ethical banking is an interesting and worthwhile subject. But this article sounds like a fanboy wrote it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.78.89.69 (talk) 02:11, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Awful article. 

message: I'm not sure that organization deserves the label "most notable" in the context of this article.  I checked several members, e.g. the single credit union out of the whole set didn't state clearly that it was non-profit!  And one bank found the need to state that its shares were trade-able on whatever exchange.  Is someone investigating the ethics/sustainability of a bank going to be interested in buying/selling the bank's shares?  Only in exploiting ethics/sustainability as merely a profit opportunity!

thread_title:  Global Alliance for Banking on Values 

message: As much as I applaude ethical banking, I don't expect Wikipedia to resemble Yellow Pages. In particular the list of banks per country is a list of external links. Only some of the banks have their own article on WP. In my opinion the names of those banks should link to their respective WP-articles or be dull black text. Their own page or stub could then have an external link to their homepage.
I don't want to vandalize someones work on the links, so I won't make rash changes to the links.

thread_title:  (Multiple) links to listed companies 

message: This section seems to be rather questionable, as (1) it purports to summarize all of ethics, a purpose better served by a link to appropriate articles, and (2) it seems to violate WP:SYN, as there is no explicit connection drawn in any cited source connecting these philosophers to ethical banking. Any thoughts? HGilbert (talk) 10:53, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
