Talk:Anime Central

message: I've removed the entire "Experience" section, which seemed to be unfettered praise that didn't add any factual content to the article. This article, like all others, needs to follow the neutral point of view policy. Best, Meelar (talk) 05:55, Apr 18, 2005 (UTC)
Strongly Agree with removal. Thanks Ishmael Rufus 16:05, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: My removal

message: The "Criticism" is clearly not a neutral point of view.  ...especially when using phrases like "add insult to injury".  While I am not disputing that some of this information may be worth mentioning, the way in which it is presented in this article was handled very poorly.  I think that section should be eliminated completely and worked into a general History section instead. It's not fair to only have a "Criticism" section and not a "Praise" section...and to have both in the article would be rediculous.--PatrickD 14:49, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: NPOV

message: I am going to work on editing the programming section of the website, because that is what I have some memory of.  I started by adding a section for events that were new last year, and recategorized some things.  I also corrected a spelling error.
I think that perhaps the panels portion of the programming offered section should be spun off into its own section of the article if more information than is posted now is to be added.  The listing elements don't convey as well the variety of events offered by the panels.  For now, I recommend that we add panel names that we remember, so that they may be incorporated into the panels section later.  However, failing that, specific references to panels should be removed, and replaced with categories instead.
Video Gaming, Tabletop Gaming, and CCG Gaming sections need to be added.  Thanks, Thrawn1020 04:18, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Programming Rework 

message: Should we include something about how ACen has one of the larger video game selections, particularly arcade games, and as of the last couple years, the room has been open 24 hours a day? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by JanusZeal (talk • contribs) 17:50, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: "one of the larger"?  As compared to who?  Saying they have video games is fine, but you should only cite them as having one of the largest video game selections if you are able to back that up with proper references.  (Some blog or forum post saying, "ACen has the biggest video game room I've ever seen!" wouldn't be a good reference.)  --PatrickD 18:03, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Comparative is definitely not NPOV. Besides, I've been to both ACEN and AX.  AX sports a bigger game room. Even so, the point of a bigger game room is not significant anyways. KyuuA4 04:53, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

text: It's just a personal observation of mine by visiting other conventions and from hearing from other people who've been to more conventions.  Obviously, "largeness" is a general term, and can refer to room size, # of games, # of consoles, who's sponsoring the arcade machines, etc.  I'm suggesting that we should get this information into the article, both for past years and upcoming. -JanusZeal 17:42, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Personal observations do not belong in the article unless they are attributable to a reliable source.  If they aren't, that falls under WP:OR and would be removed.  As for adding information on upcoming years, that would fall under WP:CRYSTAL and also does not belong. --PatrickD 20:58, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Again, and I quote myself: "...refer to room size, # of games, # of consoles, who's sponsoring the arcade machines, etc.  I'm suggesting that we should get this information into the article, both for past years and upcoming."  As for upcoming years, WP:CRYSTAL does not apply.  Information is not, and will not, be merely speculative, nor would it be unverified.  Information about planned events and specs would be provided by ACen management itself. -JanusZeal 16:52, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

text:  I was going to add a section relative to all the gaming qualities yet I'm not sure what to call it. The list of expected video games can be sited here. However, I know this list is not finalized by the Department Head yet. 12.144.116.172 20:09, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Video Gaming? 

message: I'm Rather new to working with Wiki stuff, but as ACen management I'm going to try and start a Demographic info section. I will try to get as much info on previous years as possible but will be starting with this year. Please feel free to correct any spelling or code errors, but keep the info intact. I'm not quite sure how to reference this info as it comes from our database. Anyone have a suggestion?

replies: text: It has to come from a reliable published source, preferably something other then from Anime Central itself. Also editing of this article by Anime Central Staff can be viewed as a violation of Wikipedia's Conflict of Interest guidelines. --Farix (Talk) 20:52, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I Wasn't aware of the Conflict of Interest, However after reading it I don't think this would be out of bounds. It doesn't say Don't edit it, but be careful not to do any sort of promotion or such that would make the article no longer nutural. What I'm interested in posting is pure data.

thread_title:  Demographic Info 

message: I am WP:COI. Can someone please remove the fact that Anime Central's venues are the Embassy Suites and the DoubleTree hotel. While Anime Central uses those hotels for rooming (very little) staff and attendees, they do not actually have programming there. Please see: http://www.animecons.com/events/info.shtml/1587 As far as I know, they've never had programming there, so the 'venue' would be invalid for both those locations, correct?
