Talk:Criticism of Facebook

message: This article has become way too long and major sections (such as the "Privacy issues" section) should be spun off or broken out into separate articles.--Alex Rosenberg (talk) 06:13, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: See my comments below, I think it is better to keep one major article than break-up. I do think that this article could be condensed a lot and reduced in size however.Britishfinance (talk) 12:24, 20 December 2018 (UTC)

text: , which sections or what prose do you think should be pulled into those? Is it within the criticisms section? If so, this discussion should be coordinated with the  Edit: Brain dead (low blood sugar, so I thought I was on the facebook article talk page). You should coordinate a discussion on the main Facebook article page, since there is a proposed split of of the criticisms sub section there: Facebook#Criticisms_and_controversies.

replies: text:  Having read this article I don't see the immediate rationale of splitting this up (or the tag on the front regarding length). Yes, it is long, but it is not hard to navigate (as the sections/sub-sections are reasonably well laid out).  Some of the text could be condensed and edited down (a lot in places), but I think we have a better chance of keeping a good (albeit long) article on issues with Facebook, then breaking it up and having sub-sections fall into neglect.Britishfinance (talk) 12:22, 20 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  Even if the subsections are well laid out, the reading experience suffers from the article's sheer length. Try navigating this article on a mobile device. Important points of this article should be consolidated and major sections need to be condensed or spun off into separate pages. -- Alex Rosenberg (talk) 01:56, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Article should be split up 

message: I propose splitting parts of this article into Privacy issues of Facebook and Litigation of Facebook in order to improve the reading experience and to meet the proposed readable prose size.QuickWhitt7 (Talk/Contribs) 09:28, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Proposed article splitting 

message: I've split Litigation to List of lawsuits involving Facebook, given the proposal was made in this section almost two years ago and has consensus. Litigation seemed like the least controversial of the various splits that should be done to this article, so a fair start. ProcrasinatingReader (talk) 15:49, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Split [[Facebook#Litigation|Litigation]] to [[List of lawsuits involving Facebook]] 

message: I've split the privacy material into the existing Privacy concerns of Facebook article.  The material will need to be summarized though. KyuuA4 (Talk:キュウ) 09:22, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Splitting off Privacy 

message: As stated previously, this article is waaaaaaay too long and sections like Psychological/sociological effects should be given their own article. Perhaps we kick if off with a bunch of  drafts to start? edit: I could take a crack at one if other editors care to be involved. QRep2020 (talk) 13:35, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

message: How about a new topic on the simple realization, that facebook was originally an idea for virtualising for kids at home, schools' facewalls,.. basically photos of everyone so that kids new to the school, can learn who everyone else is / learn someone's name,.. but-virtual.
That's it guys,.. massive deflation / come-down needed.  That is what facebook WAS, and that is all that facebook SHOULD BE.
The base idea basically got ripped off, back in the 90s.  I know, it was a visiting Canadian? i think? teacher at our school, who introduced us to the old fashioned paper-version, and after a few of us agreed on a virtual one, that the idea took off.
Obviously some git got to register it as their own idea,.. but it was never meant to become the monster it has. 120.21.95.194 (talk) 22:50, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

message: Why isn't this article protected?  It's about criticism of a large corporation that has a lobbying arm.  It should be protected, right? 73.250.255.143 (talk) 23:45, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
