Disagreement with "Unencyclopedic" and "Newsrelease" Tags
[edit]On 14 October 2008, the user at IP address 208.81.184.4 added "Unencyclopedic" ("This article... may contain material not appropriate for an encyclopedia") and "Newsrelease" ("This article... reads like a news release, or is otherwise written in an overly promotional tone") tags to the article. I disagree with those tags for the following reasons:
- As discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DMAA: The Care Continuum Alliance in August 2008, "DMAA: The Care Continuum Alliance is a well-established and widely recognized trade association... [and] has been cited extensively in the trade and popular press over the past decade." Therefore, it meets Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) criteria.
- My edits, which are not yet complete, are intended to make the article meet Wikipedia:Neutral point of view criteria. Thus far I have added the following sentences (with refs) that are questioning or critical of the organization and therefore NOT characteristic of an organization's news releases:
- "In 2008, DMAA reported that it paid $60,000 in lobbying expenses to Sonnenschein Nath & Rosenthal."
- "The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act passed later that year was described as a 'major victory'... in that the law 'authoriz[ed] payment for services provided by its [i.e., DMAA's] members to people with chronic illnesses'."
- "The usefulness of the first volume was questioned because the guidelines were voluntary in nature and 'equivocate[d] on a number of key issues, preventing true standardization even if they were adopted industrywide'."
After I'm done editing (should be a few days from now), I ask someone else to please look at the article and (if you agree with my arguments) delete the "Unencyclopedic" and "Newsrelease" tags. Thanks. AppForCalPERSMCII (talk) 05:17, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Agree with above, tags deleted. 152.79.85.72 (talk) 19:11, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
