COI
[edit]It appears that at least one contributor to this article was paid to do so, and did not disclose this, in violation of the Terms of Use [1]. Logical Cowboy (talk) 22:38, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
- Reviewed the article two times, no unbiased information or non-neutral point of view. COI has no application here. The article isn't commercial nor advertisement, it passed a deletion process sucessfully, so it's not like someone wants desesperately this article to be here. About the paid editor, well, the Rules are pretty clear about it. Aspiratrona (talk) 10:48, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
Article is not mine, Cowboy i just made a few tweaks to it. And i may be an SPA for the moment, but the discussion has to be centered on the subject, not the person, in fact it's not relevant if i'm an SPA or 5-year admin since i'm not trying to push in here any kind or spam or information, i just think that in my honest opinion that there is no conflict of interest nor biases information whatsoever in this article, thus i remove the COI template. You are an editor, so am i. Aspiratrona (talk) 11:15, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
- Again, an SPA who seems to be admitting sockpuppetting as well should not be reviewing his only article for COI. Logical Cowboy (talk) 01:53, 29 August 2014 (UTC)
- I'm entirely independent of the subject and have reviewed the text, which seems to be perfectly neutral and transparent as of today's date, both in prose and sources. Thanks. Jimthing (talk) 16:39, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
Any relation to...?
[edit]This guy, Dennis M. Ritchie, https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/ ? I thought he may have mentioned his father or other family member working for Bell Labs. (though, I could have simply mis-remembered that, of course, hence mentioning here! ;-) Jimthing (talk) 15:02, 1 December 2017 (UTC)
No longer a fulltime host on MacBreak Weekly
[edit]His final appearance as a fulltime co-host on TWiT's MacBreak Weekly was MacBreak Weekly 825 on 2022-Jul-05. https://twit.tv/shows/macbreak-weekly/episodes/825?autostart=false at around 2h02m04s. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.156.255.250 (talk) 07:02, 11 July 2022 (UTC) It appears the reason for him no longer being a host on the MacBreak podcast was that he now has a new job at YouTube https://www.theverge.com/2022/7/20/23271599/youtube-rene-ritchie-creator-liaison "YouTube hires Rene Ritchie, a tech YouTuber and former iMore leader, as its new creator liaison" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.156.255.250 (talk) 08:27, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
South African?
[edit]Rene Ritchie is from Canada. Why is this article categorized under "South African podcasters"? Joey.J (talk) 20:07, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
