To-do list:

 Here are some tasks awaiting attention:


PIF Investment portfolio

PIF's investment portfolio does not seem to have any direct relevance to LIV Golf, other than whataboutery, yet it has been persistently added. Additionally, mainstream reliable sources are not routinely listing PIF's investment portfolio in the context of LIV Golf, therefore it seems to me that nor should we, per WP:UNDUE. PIF should of course remain mentioned; it is only the addition of a list of select unrelated PIF investments (Boeing, FB, Citigroup, Disney, BoA, Live Nation, Berkshire Hathaway, BP, Uber) that would be reverted/removed. Thoughts please. wjemather 08:27, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

Clearly not suitable for inclusion here (and even less so in the Greg Norman article). There is an article on the Public Investment Fund where it could be included. This article is about LIV golf, not a place to get into details of other PIF investments. Nigej (talk) 09:10, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

Excessive quotations by Phil Mickelson

The article currently includes about 13 sentences directly quoting Phil Mickelson. I consider this excessive and approaching copyright violation territory. Why can't we summarize and paraphrase what Mickelson says, and only include a brief quote or two, when he says something that is not PR speak? Cullen328 (talk) 03:50, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

It's not just the number of quotations that is excessive – the entire Mickelson section is undue and should probably be reduced to a maximum of two paragraphs. wjemather 09:32, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
It looks like WP:COAT to me. Should be removed in its entirety and if there is anything relevant that meets guidelines then include it on the page for Phil Mickelson. --CNMall41 (talk) 17:26, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
Haven't seen anyone weigh in. It's a coatrack specific to his BLP so WP:ONUS would apply. --CNMall41 (talk) 04:09, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

Unnecessarily Including Biased News Articles

I removed two sentences (under 2022 Season) that summarized two news articles about the July 2022 LIV Golf event in Bedminster, as the selective inclusion of those news articles was unfairly biased against LIV Golf. It would be just as inappropriate to highlight news articles unfairly biased in favor of LIV Golf. With news coverage and public discussion about LIV Golf becoming increasingly polarized, it is important that this page remain neutral in its delivery of information about the subject. Since Misplaced Pages is not a newspaper, this page should not act as a repository of daily news about LIV Golf. C.Tseytlin (talk) 08:11, 2 August 2022 (UTC)
