Talk:Working Families for Wal-Mart

Thanks Colin. Ottawa's a lovely city. Lucky you! As I wrote on the discussion page, I understand your comment that what was available "overwhelm[ed] the organization's information". At the time I did my initial search on google, there was no official website for the group. There is now and I am abstracting the information.--Beth Wellington 20:59, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the "attagirl." (An American expression, not sure if it's used in Canada.) I'm the sole contributor to date. When I hadn't heard back from you, asked Rich, an admin I've worked with, to review it for NPOV problems. He made no changes, other than add to the talk page to ask if it was okay to remove the tag. I appreciate your doing so and the time you spent earlier in critiquing the article. If you have further suggestions or any information you want to add to the article, I'd be glad for the help.--Beth Wellington 20:58, 2 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's a pleasure. (We do have attagirl too here!) cmh 05:51, 3 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Colin, I noticed you said you needed a source for the anonymous poster adding "Astroturfing" as a related link. The Center for Media and Democracy, publishers of PR Watch hs identified WFFWM as as front group here[1].

Will that source suffice? If not, I will consult the professor who teaches a course at University of Milwaukee (your fellow Canadian) on "Walmarting," as he's more familiar with the literature and the web citations I've found come from blogs or anti-Wal-mart groups. Or perhaps there could be a disclaimer, such as, "Wake-up Walmart has described WFFWM as a front group." (There's already a link to that item in the article.)

By the way, Astroturfing is defined as "In American politics and advertising, the term astroturfing describes formal public relations projects which deliberately seek to engineer the impression of spontaneous, grassroots behavior. The goal is the appearance of independent public reaction to a politician, political group, product, service, event, or similar entities by centrally orchestrating the behavior of many diverse and geographically distributed individuals."

There is certainly a public relations firm which admits this is a formal project. This may be more of an issue in the US where Congress is considering disclosure requirements for astroturfing, which in the public relations world goes by the more neutral term of "grassroots lobbying."

Will also post this to the article discussion page. Thanks for your help with this and your interest in maintaining the integrity of the article.--Beth Wellington 17:34, 1 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Is there a name for this kind of conversation? You know the kind where you wind up talking to someone who picks a random thing out of whatever you post, just so they can challenge it? I want a name so I can brandish it about whenever I'm stuck in a conversation like that"

The purpose of an AfD is not for everyone to drop by, vote, and leave; we're supposed to build a consensus. I will hold people accountable for what they say, and I will either defend or retract what I say. I do not challenge random things for fun, and I find the accusation deeply insulting. I respectfully ask you to retract that insult from the AfD page; it serves no purpose there. Melchoir 05:27, 2 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, fair enough, the comment was in poor taste. I will take it down. Let me try being more constructive here: I am frustrated when it looks like someone wants the last word all the time. I think your comments on that posting are persistent beyond the point of facilitating a good debate on the issues. It's reasonable to rebut, yes, but sometimes people disagree with you and it comes off like badgering when you rebut and rebut and rebut. Pointing out technicalities is not going to change minds beyond a certain point, and constant badgering leads to people leaving (as DanielCD has) which is not consensus even if it looks like it. Look at that discussion dispassionately for a moment and you will see the frustration around some of your remarks. At the end of the day you can't transmit your opinion just by stating it over and over and over and over. You believe this page is good for WP, others don't. Fine, that is what AfD is for. Argue your point then let the chips fall. There's always another story to write. cmh 06:16, 2 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I have actually learned the art of walking away elsewhere on Wikipedia, but I just couldn't let DanielCD's parting shot go unchallenged. He accused me essentially of making stuff up; for the record I had to demonstrate what I was talking about. I'm sorry to badger, but I don't rely on technicalities, and I wouldn't ever just state an opinion over and over; I actually reply to the individual editors on how I think they're wrong. There is a tendency for controversial AfDs to turn into straw polls when neither side is willing to challenge the other, and we can do better than that. I regret the hard feelings, but I don't know what else I should have done. Melchoir 06:54, 2 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm the author of this article or more exactly I've translated it from Francophone Wikipedia. You've proposed this article to be deleted because this is advertisement. I have to say that I don't know Exalead at all.

However, I've tried to make the article more neutral. I don't exactly know what I can write more on the article since the web site does not provide much information.

I will continue working with your list to clean up any other obvious candidates. I won't touch the ones which may be controvertial as per discussions above.

Hi. Thanks for getting in touch. Yep. I blended the hop information from RateBeer, BeerAdvocate and another source (can't recall now - did I list it?). I set about editing the information down to cut out any copyright implications, but never finished. Always intended to, but never got round to it. Always something else catches the attention! The basic information is not copyrightable, just the individual wording here and there. If you've looked at the RateBeer information and compared it to the article you'll notice differences, including different hops here and there. If you're up for finishing off the rewording, that would be great. And thanks for bringing the issue up. Happy editing! SilkTork 16:27, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Done. :) - Cheers,

You removed an inuse tag from the FEMA Urban Search and Rescue Task Force article, and rightly so according to the talk page for that template. This leads to a couple of questions:

1) Why is there an in-use template that allows you to put in a date if it will be removed within two hours of someone making the last edit. It is very unlikely that anyone will be doing major edits constantly with less than a two hour break in-between. People need to sleep sometime unless they are using artificial stimulants to stay awake. If that is the case, they probably wouldn't be in a proper condition to be doing major edits. Why keep this template?

2) How does a person tag an article that they are in the middle of creating that they know will take many days so that is doesn't get tagged with stub, reference, incomplete info, non-categorized, etc. before the person has a chance to complete the article?

Hi, I am trying to figure out if hydrogenated oils are trans fat and if not, what are they? Saturated fats? I'm not referring to partially hydrogenated oils. Both hydrogenated oils and partially hydrogenated redirect to the Trans Fat article, so there should be some clear distinctions spelled out on the page.

From the discussion of Trans-fat free Crisco on the Crisco page, it seems that "fully" hydrogenated oils are not trans-fats, but that doesn't answer the question what they are. I mean, I have a PhD and I can't work wikipedia on this issue to find what I want to know.

I changed the category because the old name, "College radio", is a US-exclusive term that cannot be used as the default international term. I solicited opinions from other users on how best to rename it, and "Student radio" was the consensus — both because it's a term that's internationally understood, and because all of the other university and college media categories (Category:Student newspapers, Category:Student magazines, Category:Student television stations) use the term "student", so it provides consistency. It was a tricky case, because there are a lot of different terms for the same thing, but we had to try to come up with the best neutral "umbrella term" we could, and "student" was the least problematic option.

Also, for what it's worth, I'm not sure I understand the distinction you see between "student format" and "campus format" — I just don't see how the terms necessarily imply different things from each other. Could you explain what you think the difference is? Bearcat 20:29, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you'd like to propose a different alternate name, you're free to do that anytime you want. I'm not convinced that the term "campus radio" has sufficiently broad international usage to serve as the default term, but if you'd like to propose it, be my guest. The bottom line, however, is that "college radio", as a US-exclusive term, was definitely an inappropriate name for the category.

I also still don't see how "student" implies anything different than "campus" does — at least to me, there isn't any possible name that doesn't potentially carry a false implication of "participation is restricted to people directly associated with this university". "College", "campus" and "student" all imply that restriction equally, if you don't know how that system really works — and none of the terms are ever actually used with the intention of implying such a restriction. So I just don't see that one term implies anything different than the other one does. Bearcat 23:31, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have absolutely no interest in picking a fight about this. I really don't particularly care what the category is named, as long as it's a neutral, internationally suitable term (which "college radio" absolutely, unequivocally wasn't, as you yourself recognize). If you want to propose a renaming discussion, go right ahead. If you're trying to get into a scrap about it, though, then go punch a pillow or something, because I'm not going to bite :-) Bearcat 19:51, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a good discussion anywhere of the pros and cons of different alternatives to trans fats, esp. for industry? I've seen palm oil proposed as a good alternative, even though it is high in saturated fat. I've also seen coconut oil defended and canola and soybean oils attacked. But it's all very polarized. I have not seen a scientific article that compares all of these as alternatives to trans fat.

Thank you for any leads. And kudos for your hard and patient work on the trans fat article. Annodeus 19:49, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
