Talk:Artificial Christmas tree

Recycled
If editors want to add that "most" artificial Christmas trees made from PVC are made from recycled plastic then they will have to cite a a reliable source, otherwise it will continue to be removed. Note the American Christmas Tree Association is not a reliable source for this information. 04:47, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

SPAM
This article seems a magnet for spam and COI from multiple Christmas tree vendors. Stuff like this is purely spam: "Companies such as Mountain King, Barcana and the National Tree Company have marketed increasingly realistic PVC trees made to closely resemble Douglas fir, Ponderosa pine or other common types of Christmas trees. During the 1990s trees not only began to appear more realistic but some also smelled more realistic. Many of these more modern models come with pre-strung lights and hinged branches which simply had to be snapped into position. More recently, companies such as Balsam Hill have begun to use (PE) plastic molded from natural tree branches in an effort to create more realistic artificial Christmas trees. However, not all makers of artificial Christmas trees strive for naturalism. Companies like Treetopia have received attention for marketing trees in non-traditional colors and styles, like rainbow-colored trees or upside-down trees."

Some of these seem irrelevant companies. On the other hand, it does not make sense that a general article such as this one puts so much emphasis on US companies. --MarioGom (talk) 20:04, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
