Complaint

Wow, sounds like Arbitron is shopping a script for a Movie of The Week… no wonder the discussion page was deleted, somebody must have called BS…

Is anyone around who can verify the history and Research reports sections? Otherwise the article is in need of a fundamental rewrite, I'd do it myself but I don't have a detailed enough understanding of the Portable People Meter system to feel comfortable doing so. Also there should be more attention given to the critics of the system, as right now it reads like a promotional flyer form Arbitron. Once again, I'm not positioned to represent a detailed enough understanding on that matter. I'm going to try and get some verifiable sources, but any help on the matter from people who know where to look would be greatly helpful. Heynow09 (talk) 02:06, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

removing POV tag with no active discussion per Template:POV

I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:

This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:

There is consensus on the talkpage or the NPOV Noticeboard that the issue has been resolved
It is not clear what the neutrality issue is, and no satisfactory explanation has been given
In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant.

Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! -- Khazar2 (talk) 04:42, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I couldn't figure out how to edit it myself.

Delilah and psychoacoustic masking

@JMyrleFuller: you need a source to support your latest addition; the article cited does mention psychoacoustic masking, but does not support your assertion that it is a possible culprit, nor the attribution you make to Delilah. She may well have made statements more in line with your synthesis, but not in the Bloomberg article used to support this section (nor in any place that I've been able to discover). —jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 03:50, 13 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
