message: This article seems to have been edited with significant bias - a majority of recent edits have originated from anonymous users.  A section is called "Illegal examples" and has been vandalized to specifically bias the article (who has ever been charged by some law enforcement agency with "illegal word of mouth marketing practices??")  Will provide cleanup and broader citations. +++DeepDishChicago (talk) 04:29, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

message: "Word of mouth is the passing of information by verbal means"
...and few lines below...
"Word of mouth is typically considered a spoken communication, although web dialogue, such as blogs, message boards and emails are often now included in the definition."
It contradicts itself, so I hope someone can put a better version. I would if my English was a bit better. --logixoul 09:12, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Verbal can refer to any communication using words, although it is sometimes used to mean only spoken (oral) communication. I don't think there is a contradiction, since the meaning should be clear from the context. Wmahan. 17:26, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Umm, I thought verbal was used always in this sense... I've just learned something new =) --logixoul 19:20, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Wouldn't that definition include all communication involving languages? This would mean primary sources are word of mouth. -- Gyrofrog  (talk) 17:05, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

message: "Merge Word of mouth marketing" into "Word of mouth". Word of mouth is a cultural phenomenon and Word of mouth marketing is a specific advertising technique that makes use of it. So "Word of mouth marketing" is a subset of "Word of mouth" and should be merged as such. Fountains of Bryn Mawr 16:29, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks like no one has paid much attention to this issue for awhile.  I have started an article "Word-of-mouth marketing" to cover the marketing aspect of this.  I recommend that all the information on "word of mouth marketing" be moved to the article "Word-of-mouth marketing", because "Word of mouth" is quite a separate topic — please see the new introduction I wrote to "Word of mouth", pretty self explanitory.  My intention is to expand this article "Word of mouth" to include all forms of word-of-mouth communications, not just marketing.  I am also working on expanding the article "Word-of-mouth marketing" to a respectable well-sourced Wikipedia article.  I invite anyone who is interested in helping me with this to join in the fun.  If there are no objections in a reasonable amount of time, I will go ahead and move the information about "word-of-mouth marketing" myself.  Thank you for your time and consideration. --Jeffrey Scott Maxwell (talk) 01:26, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  What's the gibberish? 

message: Its so poorly written, aside from the dead link and Deloitte being spelt wrong, its really horrible. I don't have time to fix it. It makes such sweeping generalisations without references as to why eWOM is only 10% of WOM it should probably just be mass deleted...
: It is also off-topic and the subject of a separate article- Word-of-mouth marketing. I added a disambig, and I'll delete the marketing content here unless there is strong objection. Volunteer1234 (talk) 18:17, 9 September 2017 (UTC)
