Source Text: Mid-1900s - David Ogilvy (1911–1999) - advertising tycoon, founder of Ogilvy & Mather, known[by whom?] as the "father of advertising"

EDIT: attribution to the "[by whom?]" can be properly cited by:

Hatfield, Stefano. "The father of advertising; Media." Times [London, England], 23 July 1999, p. 44. Gale Academic OneFile, link.gale.com/apps/doc/A58133131/AONE?u=anon~16bc3d02&sid=googleScholar&xid=5cdd5e2b. Accessed 6 June 2023. Gstoecker.digital (talk) 20:16, 6 June 2023 (UTC)


 * ❌. It looks like all you want to do is add a citation? If that is the case, I'd like to have a proper URL so that I can take a look at the source. The link you provided outputs an error. Please reply to this comment, and use the citation template and paste the URL to output a valid citation. Thanks! Cocobb8 (talk) 16:06, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

"Propaganda"?
I have reverted. The term "propaganda" has a pejorative meaning not normally associated with advertising, given that it implies deception in the form of half-truths and/or untruths being promoted as fact. Advertising in general, as opposed to false advertising, does not possess those characteristics. Discuss your edit here and offer reliable sources that support your edit before you make it again, please.  General Ization Talk  20:24, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
