Talk:Lunt Silversmiths

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Advert tag applied primarily due to non-NPOV of introduction. Introduction will also need to be wikified in accordance with the WP:MOS. --CPAScott 21:49, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Oh please! Its only the history of the company there is no advertisement in history and there is no “non neutral point of view” in history.

I beg to differ. This article is generally fine, but needs some minor cleanup. Examples:
  • Per Wikipedia:Lead section, "The subject of the article should be mentioned in bold face at the first natural place that it occurs in the prose, preferably in the first sentence."
  • non-NPOV is existent in words like "our" such as "Today Lunt manufactures over a thousand different items in our Greenfield facility".
  • Minor gramatical improvements to sentences such as the lack of period in the first sentence under "History", etc.
  • No internal links, other than a single one to another page you created. Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (links), "The purpose of internal links is to allow readers to easily and conveniently follow their curiosity or research to other articles. These links should be included where it is most likely that a reader would want to follow them elsewhere — for example, in article introductions, the beginnings of new sections, table cells, and image captions. Generally, where it is likely that a reader may wish to read about another topic, the reader should not have to hunt for a link elsewhere in the page."
As such, I think it appropriate that this article be tagged with the cleanup tag. I'm not saying that this article isn't valid, nor am I peronally attacking its author. I'm saying that some minor clean-ups will bring the article into conformance with Wikipedia's guides and improve the overall quality of the article. Accordingly, I have tagged this and your other article with the more general {{cleanup}} tag. Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia and for helping make it a quality resource. --CPAScott 14:55, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
