replies: text: Even worse, in the infoxbox it says 	June 6, 1983  but the article says November 26, 1983 (incidentally; the day I was born). 194.78.209.104 (talk) 08:00, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

text: As of now, in 2023, I don't see anything linked to verify the birth date or even birth year given in the current version of the article. Am I missing something? RW Dutton (talk) 19:46, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

QUOTE: "Hughes, a co-founder of Facebook with an estimated fortune of more than half a billion dollars, bought T.N.R. [The New Republic magazine] in 2012, and the Washington headquarters was a reflection of his ambitions." -- Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 22:30, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  New NEWS today, for future editing  

message: I've reverted recent edits by User:Zuno2223 regarding Hughes' ownership of The New Republic.diff The tone of these edits was extremely negative and crossed the line into violating WP:NPOV, WP:NOR and WP:BLP.
While it is accurate that Hughes' actions were widely criticized, and it is reasonable for Wikipedia to present that criticism, the tone of these edits does not meet Wikipedia's standards. Some specific problems:
*"In December 2014, shortly after the magazine's centennial celebration, editor Franklin Foer, and literary editor Leon Wieseltier, who had worked at the magazine for thirty-two years, were "driven out" and dozens of other staff and contributing editors resigned when a new chief executive, Guy Vidra a former Yahoo! employee, described the new direction of the magazine as a "vertically integrated digital media company."" This implies that Vidra's quote about TNR becoming a "vertically integrated digital media company" was the factor in "driving out" Foer and Wieseltier. The causative link is inappropriate without strong sourcing.
*To describe a comment by an individual as "seemingly bitter" or as a "parting shot" is a violation of WP:NOR and entirely inappropriate. The phrase "qualified contrition" is equally inappropriate.
*While this edit presents four paragraphs of quotes from critics of Hughes, it presents Hughes' POV in only one sentence. However, it doesn't take Hughes' opinion seriously, instead it immediately presents judgements about what Hughes said. The editor does not judge the opinions of Hughes' critics. This clearly does not meet WP:NPOV. We do not need to have an equal amount of quotes that support and oppose Hughes, but we should at least present Hughes' viewpoint (or the viewpoint of a supporter) without trying to immediately discredit that viewpoint.
 Please consider revising your edits in accordance with WP:NPOV, WP:NOR and WP:BLP. Thanks, GabrielF (talk) 01:25, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

message: Can we move this page to Chris Hughes (entrepreneur) and restore Chris Hughes to be a redirect to the disambiguation page Christopher Hughes.
While 12 years ago, some might have considered this specific Chris Hughes to be a primary topic due to his connection to Facebook, I think it is unlikely that he meets WP:PT1 anymore and he certainly doesn't meet WP:PT2.
I think it would make much more sense for individuals to be parenthesis-disambiguated and the primary topic to be the dab page. — OwenBlacker (he/him; Talk) 15:56, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
