Talk:Cynthia Sakai

Edit requested on July 5, 2016
There are several peacock terms in the article which need to be removed. We had this article up for some time now without incident but it seems to be under scrutiny now and I'm not entirely sure what has changed. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, there seems to be an issue with the validity of our sources which I don't truly understand. All of the sources listed are legit and working links.
 * Hi Vitafede. Yes, this article does contain far too many promotional phrases, like "superior craftsmanship and profound attention to detail" and "classic and timeless." These descriptions are all opinions, but they shouldn't be mentioned in an encyclopedia because everybody can have a different idea of what is "classic and timeless." Instead, an article should describe just the facts. What are specific details that make this line of clothing different, and what do the critics say about it? I have rewritten the "Early life" section. Words such as "beautiful" and "captivating" do not adhere to a neutral point of view, so I rewrote the paragraph to just say what happened without these adjectives. Now, it is up to you to fix the rest of the article.


 * The deletion discussion and extra scrutiny are normal stages in Wikipedia's reviewing cycle. There are millions of articles on Wikipedia, but only thousands of active contributors, so it takes time for Wikipedia editors to spot problems. Hope this helps. Altamel (talk) 03:46, 16 July 2016 (UTC)

Correct source link #9
The #9 source link ( Khanh T.L. Tran. "Vita Fede Travels Own Path to Growth – WWD". Wwd.com. Retrieved 2016-07-05.) requires the user to have an account in order to read articles.

The URL below will link directly to the article correctly. Could someone please change this? Thanks

 * ❌ That website looks problematic from a copyright point of view. I rather doubt michilliinc.com has the right to re-publish WWD's content when it's not publicly available on WWD's website. We should not link to copyright violations. Huon (talk) 13:17, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia page for self advertising
This Wikipedia page seems like a personal public relations promotion for Cynthia Sakai's own business. I have a favorite pizza place in Los Angeles, and it's been in many publications, but it doesn't have a Wikipedia page, it's just a restaurant. Cynthia Sakai is an entrepreneur, she is not a household name, not famous, notable and if more people like her made Wikipedia pages, Wikipedia would be become less of an online encyclopedia and more of an endless collection of narcissists.
