message: I've added a merge template to CBS News Marketwatch. This article and that article seem to have nearly identical content. Theshibboleth 23:36, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Merger

message: Ostensibly a Financial site, most of the content is embedded in a sea of advertising.  Front page 'teasers' with links which appear to take you to the 'whole story' in fact lead to more pages of teasers for other stories, and more adverts, before the real story is reached another link deep, again surrounded by advertising.
Many of the stories at the bottom of pages are targeted at the 'lowest common denominator' audience ('10 things you must know about', etc.) in the same way as many down-market online publications.
The articles themselves have very little original analysis and mostly consist of quotes from other publications or stock market figures with links to Dow Jones, Financial Times, etc. - presumably hoping to get back-links to the site. It also has a partisan, right-wing bias, I think. It serves as an echo to a lot of unfounded rumors that6 other News Corp organs push.
There is obviously a huge market for this sort of content-light advertising business, and it's not surprising to find financial content as a form of click-bait to feed it.
:: That is an interesting perspective. The website seems to push products that are borderline nefarious, including (in 2016) for profit education companies like ITT educational services inc, (in 2017) Kiyosaki's real estate get rich quick high priced seminars and (in 2018) agencies promoting buying / hoarding gold as an "investment". There is something fishy about it, but I am unable to put my finger on what it is, as it is mixed with a lot of facts.Notthebestusername (talk) 06:44, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

message: Keeping in mind that most of the attendees of the AIDS conference will be affiliated with left-wing politics. It deserves to be mentioned that Prime Minister Harper, who is a conservative and does not uphold left-wing politics, has only done what former Prime Minister Chretian, coincidently a left-wing politician, did in the past. Brian Mulroney attended the conference in the past only to be boo'd by the audience, thereby commencing the conference with a bad start. I have only included the fact that Jean Chretian has not attended the previous conference.

Talk:Melissa Keller

message: The Grenier sources are  which is sourced to "People.com", and  which cites "People" and "Extra". These all seem like tabloids, not reliable sources. WP:BLP#Sources states "Editors should avoid repeating gossip published by tabloids and scandal sheets. Ask yourself whether the source is reliable; whether the material is being presented as true; and whether, even if true, it is relevant to an encyclopedia article about the subject." -- Jeandré, 2007-07-25t12:23z
:People Magazine isn't really a tabloid or scandal sheet.  As for as entertainment news goes, it's reasonably reliable.  There is other evidence out there besides People (example, they both have each other at the top of their mySpace pages).  That the two of them are dating is "verifiable" - the standard on Wikipedia.

Talk:Melissa Mathison

message: I'm removing the phrase "sometimes credited as Josh Rogan" from the opening sentence.  It's been marked as 'citation needed', but more importantly, I think it's just not that significant.  From the IMDb, she used that credit once, for a segment of a portmanteau film, likely jokingly (Rogan Josh).  "Once" is not "sometimes", and suggesting it's a nom-de-plume, prominent enough to be mentioned in the first breath, is misleading.  That one instance is still listed below; I really think that's enough.  Thanks.  Ale And Quail (talk) 08:44, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

replies: text: Buzzfeed.com is not a reputable source? It's used for the news. I am going to be adding back in the controversy. She was supporting Chick-Fil-A. Saying she was supporting "free speech" is a cop out. There was no hampering on Chick-Fil-A's free speech. She's a fundamentalist Christian. She doesn't believe in gay equality. The tweet lead to a feud with other actors in the media. It was doubly controversial due to the fact that her show was dealing with a much publicized gay storyline, and promoting anti-bullying against gays and lesbians. Remember, we don't put in our assessment of who or what she was supporting. We merely lay out the facts, what happened in the media, and let people decide for themselves. It did hurt her career, so it is noteworthy. Her having an affair is tabloid fodder. Partyclams (talk) 18:37, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

text: I can add anything I wish as long as I source it. I don't appreciate your tone, BeckiGreen. Buzzfeed is a reputable source, no matter how many times you wish to profess the contrary. Secondly, there was more than just her tweet in this story. The entire event played out in the media between her and two other actors. Lastly, you sent me a message claiming that you reverted my contribution to her article, and that you would file a report if I added it back again. I never published anything to Melissa Reeves' page. Either get your facts straight, or don't bother messing with Wikipedia, and certainly don't go wasting my time. Thanks. Partyclams (talk) 05:42, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

message: The stated claim that Trainer "in 2004 demonstrated empirically that life could have formed on Earth through the interaction of methane, carbon dioxide and ultraviolet light (sunlight)." is a gross exaggeration of the results of the published papers. Trainer and her entourage (Verne Equinox) also repeatedly fail to give credit to senior co-workers and mentors on this project. Their work concerned the formation of organic atmospheric haze. It had NOTHING to do with the Origin of Life. They actually cite others (e.g., Miller, Miller–Urey experiment) regarding the origin of life on Earth. Trainer most certainly did NOT "demonstrate[] empirically that life could have formed on Earth through the interaction of methane, carbon dioxide and ultraviolet light (sunlight).AdderUser (talk) 10:59, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

message: :Yes, if you'd like to upload another photo under a suitable license, Rob or another Wikipedia user can help you do that if needed. But I do want to make clear that Ms. Hollingsworth herself doesn't really have the right to decide what photo Wikipedia can or can't use of her — Wikipedia users get to evaluate whatever photos are actually available for our use and to decide among them ourselves. So if she doesn't like the photo at hand, she certainly has the option of providing another one that she's willing to release under a GFDL or public domain license — but until we actually have an alternate image available and properly licensed for us to use, it isn't really her prerogative to dictate that we can't use the only photo we have. Bearcat (talk) 21:25, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I would just add that even if a new image is uploaded, it is still possible that the consensus on this talk page would be to maintain the existing image.  For the same reason that an article subject does not get to dictate if an image is used or not, similarly the article subject does not get to dictate which image is used.Having said all that, a new image could solve the problem.  We had the same issue arise on the Bryan Lee O'Malley article, where in that case Mr. O'Malley asked readers of his livejournal to remove the only image of him in the article, as he hated the photo.  After the problem was explained to him on his talk page here on Wikipedia, Mr. O'Malley kindly uploaded a better image that is now used in the article.  --Skeezix1000 (talk) 22:51, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
