Talk:Concern Worldwide

POV
Parts of this article are written in the third person, so the article reads like a brochure. I would have put an advertising template on the article, but it's a non-profit organisation. Correct me if I am wrong with my choice of actions. Black-Velvet 09:03, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

I added an advert template. I know this seems harsh for an article about a charity but it's fairly blatant. If anyone can think of a more appropriate template feel free to replace. --Jkspratt 03:25, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

The advert tag was removed without explanation or any improvements being made. The article looks like it was either copied from Concern's own literature or written by someone working for the organisation. I've added a cleanup tag instead. This article isn't of sufficient quality and I don't know enough about the charity to re-write myself. --Jkspratt 22:05, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

Copyvios
I have removed a number of copyvio sections pulled straight from Concern Worldwide's website. Cheers! Scapler (talk) 17:34, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

Clean-up
This page was not of sufficient quality so I’ve edited it to make it more neutral. I’ve added citations and removed the parts that were in the third person. I feel this addresses the issues above so I've removed the tags. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ariel lydiaAriel lydia (talk) 09:25, 25 January 2011 (UTC) (talk • contribs) 11:14, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
