message: 1) anti semitism charge - this is strictily wiki npov, facts are to be reported, only objections can be relevance and sourcing, on relevance, certainly that someone portrayed as a humanitarian leader was antisemitic is worth noting
2) reads like advertising, for instance the first line, "flagship" brand is advetising, the sentance about grwoing to americas 1 st coast to coast chain is simply poor english, ungrammatical and poorly written
3) "leading hotels" say who; souirce this with indpendnt source and i will gladly accept it
*Please sign your posts as suggested in the guidelines.  Material about an individual belongs in that persons article.  It does not need to be repeated in every article the person might have been involved with.  My changes actually reduced the advertising tone of the article.  Flagship is not advertising, it is a well accepted term to describe the leading brand for a company.  Even if you took it as advertising, how would it affect the article? Its not like we are comparing this brand to another company brand. It only applies to the other Hilton brands.  If there is a problem with leading hotels, why not just request a citation with  rather then deleting what might be correct information?  Vegaswikian 00:42, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Should we keep this section?  Right now it appears to be a place to try and list all of the hotels owned by the chain.  If the individual property is not notable enough to merit an article, with some exceptions, why should it be included here?  Do these entries really belong in a separate list if there is a need to list every hotel?  Vegaswikian 22:02, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:Hilton hotel.png 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 insure 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 other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

message: I removed the section on Bangkok Hilton. I see no reason why this is relevant to the Hilton chain as it was a nickname of a fictional prison and a dirivative of "Hanoi Hilton". Perhaps a "Hilton Hotels in Popular Culture" Section should be added. --Wareagle3890 03:27, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That's good idea to add the section Hilton Hotels in Pupular culture, I coulnd't find the reason why Bangkok Hilton is relevant. Daniel 5127 01:49, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

message: I think we have editors adding an image of any hotel they find in the article.  Personally I don't see the need for more then one or two.  So if someone wants to replace an existing image fine.  I don't know that adding a gallery for images would improve the article so I'm not suggesting that as an alternative.  Vegaswikian 19:41, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: *I think the number of images really brings the quality of the article down. I don't find many of them to be very notable and some of the photos are not particularly well-shot. I think we either need a gallery with perhaps one or two prominent Hilton's listed on the page (ie Beverly) or a major cleanup of the article as is.Thedjb 00:14, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think a Gallery or a Table-Gallery will be good , we can add much more images too and it looks good . see City and town halls . Ammar (Talk - Don't Talk) 22:43, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Hilton-Colombo.jpg

message: In the page that comes up when searching 'Hilton Hotels', in the last paragraph realting to John Lenon and Yoko Ono's stay at the Hilton Hotel in Amsterdam, the article states that they stayed in room 902.
However when viewing the same fact on the page 'Bed-in for peace' it states that they statey in room 702.
I do not know which is the correct room, but there definitely is an inconsisteny.

message: Hello, editors. I have a proposal for the removal of the notable history section, and replace it with a history section, but I'm not too sure if it is a good thing. If I can have a few suggestions of what y'all think, that would be great. Thank you, and have a nice day. Redolta (talk) 13:53, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  History suggestion 

message: Hi! I worked on this article last year on behalf of Hilton and with the help of volunteer editors as part of my duties at Beutler Ink. I'm back in the same capacity (and with the same hands-off approach) to suggest a few updates based on recent company events. I've outlined the four changes below.
*Hilton has recently rebranded, dropping the "Worldwide" from its name and also renaming its loyalty program Hilton Honors (from Hilton HHonors). Would an editor be able to adjust the mentions of "Hilton Worldwide" and "HHonors" in this article? HHonors appears twice in the Overview section and "Hilton Worldwide" appears in the following places:
**Twice in the introduction
**Under "parent" in the infobox
**Twice in the  Overview section
**Once in the Notable events section in the "In late 2010" bullet
*HHR now operates in 85 countries. There is a sentence in the introduction that can be updated with that information. The new sentence and source would be:
**As of 2017, there were more than 570 Hilton Hotels & Resorts properties in 85 countries and territories across six continents.
*The 85th country is Chad and the new hotel there marks the 100th country for Hilton as a whole. If editors agree that this is noteworthy for inclusion, I'd like to suggest the following bullet be added to Notable events:
**In 2016, Hilton N’Djamena opened in Chad. It was the brand's first property in the country and Chad was the 100th country Hilton began operations in worldwide.
*Finally, what do editors think about moving the paragraph "In the 2010s, the company upgraded the energy efficiency in many of their UK branches, installing green controls for doors, windows, and heating to ensure intelligent usage of energy depending upon whether rooms are let or vacant." from Overview to a bullet under Notable events? It doesn't seem to fit well where it is currently.
Let me know if you have any questions or feedback about what I've proposed. Thanks! Heatherer (talk) 16:20, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
