advertising

A quote from a auction house selling the firm's jewelry is not a RS for anything. If something was made for a particular person, it is inherently "bespoke" and that jargon need not be included. I removed an account of how the current owner was rotated thru the firms various depts --this is pure routine, but meant to sound impressive. NPOV is a core value at WP/.

I strongly disagree with your multiple posts in your edits that state that this article reads like an advertisement. With that mentality, you might as well delete every article that is written about a brand or artist. Some editors and readers like myself have an interest in information pertaining to artisans and the history of manufactures. The auction account was a direct quote from the auctioneer, not the viewpoint of the article. Quotes from someone that are mentioned in an article do not necessarily mean that the article is not NPOV.

[[User::Peacebyart|

Peacebyart]], The job of an auctioneer is to sell the articles at the highest possible price, and therefore any comments from that source about quality or ownership or provenance or notable customers are pure and direct advertising. Even if they are said after they have been sold, it's to attract prospective consignors and buyers to their auctions.

I agree that with fashion and other objects that owe their significance to vogue interests it can be difficult to tell hype form genuine coverage -- which is why we needto particularly strict on that field; classic or historic works and firms are easier to work with, and are in any caase a better focus for an encyclopedia. Thus, the company is notable , but not necessarily the present owner nor specific items of jewelry (unless of course historic or famous). DGG ( talk ) 20:12, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree with your point that current owners of companies, with regards to jewelry or fashion houses, are not necessarily notable. This information is a vital part of their history and is indeed worth mentioning in an article. A quick look at several current articles, which I can list on request, mention their current owners and usually the current artistic director.

Also, the owner of the jewelry pertaining to one of the sections that you deleted is herself notable and has an article about her which also mentions the jewelry auction on Wikpedia. From my research, the auction was reported in several international newspapers at the time.

I also believe that jewelry created for a royal wedding is notable and so is the designer. Peacebyart (talk) 23:56, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
