Epay

Epay redirects here, but no explanation is given. Can anyone add information on this brand (maybe Barkeep, as you seem to be the only active user to have contributed a significant amount of the content)? --KnightMove (talk) 09:00, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply

Well, although I have no knowledge of the move a quick glance at the revision history shows that
be bold and add a sub-section about it to the Euronet article. The only significant work I did for the article was add an infobox and a few paragraphs to a three sentence article back in 2008. BarkeepChat/$ 05:19, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply

Observations

This section explains some criticism of the company's operations, however each critical point is explained/excused with language that is not neutral.

Either the explanations/excuses should be removed, or the language should be adjusted to be neutral.

Would "The whole company is a scam robbing tourists that don't know better" be neutral enough? --Anvilaquarius (talk) 18:16, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Edit dispute

Copy and pasting conversation from User Blackbirdxd's talk page for the larger community to possibly weigh-in on as well as a link to Blackbirdxd's post to the Administrator's Noticeboard for edit warring.

I have no

dispute resolution request. Thank you. BarkeepChat 22:38, 13 January 2021 (UTC)[reply

If you don't have
WP:CRITS you'd see that Criticism sections are "discouraged" and not prohibited. And in this particular case I believe it's well warranted. It has reliable sources, it's written completely factualy and indiscriminately and most importantly it's something that the general public should know. Do you want more people getting scammed, is that it? I've seen hundreds of popular articles on Wikipedia with dumber things written in Criticism sections but pointing our that a company is deliberately scamming people is apparently too much. Feel free to file for dispute resolution yourself. Blackbirdxd (talk) 15:13, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply

It would be helpful if someone would post a diff of what edits are causing disagreement. Im assuming this is a fair example? Bonewah (talk) 16:11, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that is the current source of the dispute (at least from my POV). Although based on User:Blackbirdxd comments, the user may dispute all edits I do. The Noticeboard post shows more of that person's examples. BarkeepChat 16:36, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Im not sure i can be of much help here.
WP:CRITS should be ignored in this case? Bonewah (talk) 21:17, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply

Response to third opinion request:
Hi Barkeep and Blackbirdxd, I have a few suggestions, I hope they are helpful:
  1. Per
    WP:CRIT
    , the offending section is actually Controversies as it gives weight to different positions, not purely negative.
  2. Aside from retitling, it's an interesting section and in my opinion worth including.
  3. Talking of weight, saying they faced criticism without saying who from is
    WP:UNDUE
    . For that reason I would drop that opening sentence entirely.
  4. It would be helpful if there were an opposing view on the damage to landmarks point (presumably Euronet responded to UNESCO?) so as to keep the whole Controversies section NPOV.
  5. assume good faith
    , not accuse other users of "wanting people to get scammed". (AGF is an actual policy, unlike CRIT which is an essay - so this is less of a suggestion, more of a firm reminder).
