EatOut Article: More Context
Hi. Thank you for reviewing my article on EatOut. Can you tell me specifically which areas/sections of the article need more context?
- The article is a bit confusing and needs more focus. Is the article about an app or a company that created an app? What is a "booking service"? What can people do with this app? The "Yummy Blog", is it part of the app or something else offered by the founder of this service? What is "EatOut Kenya"? the company that created the app or the app itself. If you'd like to include Taste Events Ltd. in the article you should probably make the article about the larger company rather than a specfic app.--RadioFan (talk) 11:35, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
Downsize Fitness: Help with Neutrality
Hey, I have been scanning over my article again and am looking for anything that has a promotional tone. You said you noticed some things I was hoping you could point them out, or let me know what the issues are. Is the article allowed to reference goals of the firm? Also I put the "press section" in external links. Is that appropriate? Thanks very much for the help!

A user whose only edits are to AfC is not one who is intending to become part of the community. As far as the links in the article ... well, at some point soon it will be accepted (in which case it will be cleaned up) or rejected and deleted. If that's how they think they can promote their business, more fool them. Daniel Case (talk) 19:56, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
- It was rejected, and I notice that they haven't edited in ... 5 days since then. Nor have they edited anything else since then. What, exactly, would a block accomplish at this point? Daniel Case (talk) 19:58, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
- Project Misplaced Pages for one. Uphold username policy. This editor is implying that they represent this company. I've reported many of these over the years as I new page patrol and I've never had something so blatant rejected. What does ignoring it accomplish?--RadioFan (talk) 20:35, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
Acronym overkill
Re: WP:Acronym overkill, when I saw the link addition, I thought it was going to be a duplicate of WP:WTF? OMG! TMD TLA. ARG! but I'm glad to see it isn't! ;) Just thought that might amuse. –Quiddity (talk) 21:16, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
