Talk:Ain't It Cool News

message: Just wondering why my changes on Harry-related controversies were backed out with a "NPOV" comment.  I have nothing against Harry personally, but he is quite a controversial figure, and I provided facts and sources for everything I wrote.  I'd prefer to see more info be added, or even have it reprased, rather than simply having my material deleted. The reason I added the material in the first place was that I came to this page to check out the controversy, and found only a slight, unreferenced mention, and I wanted to add the results of my own research into it.

replies: text: The link to the coming attractions article remains, so the material is still there for anyone who follows the link. the addition of the removed text pushed the article too much into "anti-AICN" territory, so to keep balance (i.e. NPOV) it was removed. Niz 11:03, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

text: changed "rival" to "another movie" (should be mentioned so readers are aware its POV)... i suggest a separate section called "controversies" or something to discuss the various allegations in more detail, but please also include AICN's defenses also. Niz 17:13, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  NPOV 

message: I removed the external links until there can be some verifiable sources on the "Controversy" section. Add refs and I will add them back --Nick Catalano contrib talk 17:10, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  NPOV Issues 

message: Took that section out because there is nothing relevant about the site having userfeed back or forums.  You can't swing a dead cat on the internet without having these things and they are not focused upon on other site descriptions.  The text I removed seemed to serve no purpose other than to pad out the article.  There was nothing special, interesting, or insightful about the information I deleted.

message: The notability of this subject has not been established.  Could someone please explain why this web site is notable?  --Kraftlos (talk) 19:48, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Do not remove the notability tags from this page.  You may remove the notability tags after you have established notability with reliable third-party sources, otherwise the tag must remain on the page.  I've been asking since august what makes this site notable and not one person has stepped up to the task.  As I said in my edit, Popularity ≠ Notability.  --Kraftlos (talk) 21:12, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Notability 

message: Just thought it might be worthwhile to list contributors to the site, with a possible bio for each. People like Massawyrm, Capone, The Kidd, and others. I've come here looking for information on some (like Massawyrm) as to why they no longer write for AICN.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.87.56.109 (talk) 09:25, 10 October 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  AICN Contributors? 

message: The site has launched an appeal for $100,000 US to have a TV show. The thread discussing this appeal has topped 15,500 comments, many of them detailing the history of AICN, the personalities, the discussions (Talkbacks), and Knowles' business practices. It's pretty vitriolic but worth reviewing.
