thread_title: Image copyright problem with Image:Hotelcalifornia.jpg

message: The recent move here from just "Beverly Hills Hotel" is correct. The Hotel has always been very particular about the fact that it's name begins with "The". Aside from status in the local community, this is because it was originally called The Hotel at Beverly Hills, your stopping point between Los Angeles and the sea according to ads it placed in 1915, when it was surrounded by bean fields.

replies: text: The new move today is incorrect and controversial, as having disregarded this section on the talk page. Please reverse it, and request and discuss here before moving, or we'll be moving this article back and forth every other month forever. Let's get consensus on this!

thread_title: Cite tags

message: The issue has been seriously clouded now by new vague text making it impossible for most readers to understand why LGBT advocates and some celebrities have protested at all. The pros and cons (for Beverly Hills) of Sharia Law are not common knowledge. This needs to be made clearer again. If nobody else fixes that, I will be taking a rather severe ax to the section so that it at least makes sense. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 18:22, 12 July 2014 (UTC)

message: I see room rates have been added now, but with no source. How are we going to keep that accurate as rates go up every year? --SergeWoodzing (talk) 19:04, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: Room rates

message: In a lead sentence about the hotel being "closely associated with Hollywood film stars, rock stars and celebrities", an editor has linked the word "Hollywood" to the article Cinema of the United States.  First, the article "Cinema of the United States" isn't about Hollywood.  Also, rock stars aren't associated with American cinema.  As well, it's ambiguous whether this article is referring to film stars living in Hollywood (which is close to where this hotel is located), or is referring to film stars who made it big in "Hollywood".  The editor left an edit summary stating that "Hollywood is a metronym for American cinema. the location Hollywood is not particularly of note to this sentence."  I think this editor meant to use the word "metonym", and I would strongly suspect that metonyms are words to watch.  I would suggest instead the sentence be changed to "The Beverly Hills Hotel was frequented by celebrities and notable actors associated with the movie industry located in nearby Hollywood."

replies: text: I bascially agree. And since "rock stars" usually were on the Hotel's Do Not Take List, it has never been known to host them. Producers, directors and other movie people as well as TV people should however be included. My suggestion would be "The Beverly Hills Hotel is known for having been frequented by notable people in movies and television, especially those associated with the industry synonymous with nearby Hollywood." --SergeWoodzing (talk) 17:42, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

message: Please reinstate this valuable gallery image which was removed for no apparent reason. It is my objective opinion that rare historical staff photos indeed are relevant to articles about famous hotels, no matter what the names are of individuals in them. As free images, these are few and far between. This one was specifically OK'd here. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 08:14, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I removed it among other other photas in other articles added by a person (SW writing above) with coi to the photo and a person in it. I can not see the importance of this photo here. It is a small part of the Staff. Nice private photo but not encyclopedic. I let to others to look and hope sw will do so too. Adville (talk) 09:01, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: The image had little relevance, per MOS:IMAGES. Magnolia677 (talk) 09:31, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  I agree with  - the image doesn't add anything encyclopedic to the article.  DrStrauss talk 08:51, 24 October 2017 (UTC)

message: I rolled back 2 edits that added room rates, advertisement in my book. Was I right to do so? Do we allow room rates in hotel articles? --SergeWoodzing (talk) 10:07, 3 August 2019 (UTC)
thread_title: Removed room rates

message: The lead's "the hotel has 210 guest rooms and suites and 23 bungalows" is misleading. The bungalows can be rented whole or room by room, ergo there are hotel rooms separately available there too. We should have a total amount of units item. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 00:31, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
