| Hello, | |||
| == asmallworld == | |||
| If you are opposed to the introduction of the Bunchenwald image on the article for Germany, please say so on the Talk page (I've added a new section). | |||
| no source on this page is reliable, it is all advertising as indicated by the wikipedia box at the top of the page, and the fact that each citation just links to quotes from the owners and other financially interested parties. critical information about the website exists in many forms - one of my sources was the independent, a british newspaper - http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/asmallworld-nestl-heir-patrick-liotardvogt-a-jetrosexual-website-and-a-3m-dispute-9084223.html - what makes this less reliable than any other source cited? | |||
| :], I can and will help you to write a "controversies" section - but not with the current sources you have provided, as they are not suitable per ], and I think we can do better (the "The Independent" source is ok) - also, please stop your edit warring.

| :] Sure, help me write it. No hard feeling, but I don't understand why you keep adding the fluff about the celebrities - which is linked to citation from a blog, and that doesn't mention any of the type of members listed on the wikipedia. I will keep deleting it because that is just advertising and has no cited basis from any source. Also the member card is linked to an advertising video, and the card is not claimed in that video to grant access to anything specific so it will be deleted. Please let me know what source you need to show that they promised all members a vacation (that was linked to a CNBC source which is actually cited elsewhere in the site, but that you left up. The fact that the hotel will not be full open until 2015 is cited across the internet, I don't know why the government website of the nation of St. Kitts is not acceptable, or travelocity, how else can you prove a hotel is not open? I will restore my change and you should feel free to edit them NOT DELETE them, to a manner you feel is consistent with wikipedia citing, please look at the the actual citations throughout that page. I think that in general they are not linking to any non-neutral independent sources, just to asmallworld company officials PR teams. I am curious to see what changes you will make. No hard feelings. Thanks! --] (]) 31 March 2014 (UTC) | |||
| == Missing URL == | |||
| ::] - I think most of the changes you just made are fine, I will let you know for a fact that there is no complimentary car service and the world's finest clubs membership now costs and additional $200. I have emails from asmallworld confirming these facts, how does one cite to emails from the company? Also, if you state that asmallworld complaints need citations, but complaint websites aren't good sources, what are? Just looking to do this in a professional way, thanks!

| listen homie and by homie I mean IIIraute I'm not the one who blanks sections, deletes the most recent material, and I never said I have two accounts, I said I know another person I was working with. If you feel like spending your time propping up some semi-elitist internet scam, I sure hope your getting paid for it. I am glad you can also quote an elitist English order, congrats on your French. You are the best Sherlock Holmes on Misplaced Pages. So feel free to continue trying to delete a section on a Gender Discrimination case that is pending in a federal court. I am sure that helps you sleep at night. Just cause you are self proclaimed high wizard of wikipedia or whatever you think you are doesn't mean I haven't put up valid current sources of relevant material. So go back to playing with your magic want and quoting semi-extinct cults of England.

| ::::Nothing is wrong with that sentence, the problem is that it gives it undue emphasis, which the compromise sentence does not. There is no need for the use of the term "invitation-only" in the lead. "Exclusive" is a fine term and gives the reader a good understanding of the nature of the social network. The term "invitation-only" obviously misleads some readers.

| *The point is that membership is by invitation only and that those words do not mean the same thing to everyone, hence the more involved presentation. I suggested the use of the word "exclusive" as more descriptive, and less subject to nikpicking and confusion. Arguing with each other about sources does not appear to be helpful. Think about why the reader might be confused, and what would help him. Don't think that you have to have any particular wording. Just wording that you and others can live with, albeit not perfect. --] (]) 06:24, 16 May 2014 (UTC) | |||

Missing URL
The source added in this edit seems to be missing a URL. I found a document, but I wasn't sure if it was the right one. --Boson (talk) 02:47, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
- Boson, you probably did find the right one - it's a PDF: "www.internationaltransportforum.org", 2012 OECD → "Assessment of strategic plans and policy measures on Investment and Maintenance in Transport Infrastructure", page 2 & 3.
Terrible, what is happening to the article at the moment. Honi soit qui mal y pense. --IIIraute (talk) 03:26, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
