Talk:Manager Tools Podcast

Original Research tag
According to No original research: "The term "original research" (OR) is used on Wikipedia to refer to material—such as facts, allegations, and ideas—for which no reliable, published sources exist." All the informations which are presented in the article have been published by Manager Tools so they do not present Original Research and the tag should be removed. However, although the references have been improved to include more secondary sources, the related tag PRIMARY should probably be kept for now as most references are still a primary source.

This article is written like an ad for the podcast. Much of the writing seems as if it was lifted from the podcast website. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.17.126.145 (talk) 03:20, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

There is quite a few external references. Any suggestions for improvement? - 195.173.198.90 (talk) 14:01, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

Notability tag
According to Notability_(web): "The website or content has won a well-known and independent award from either a publication or organization.[6]". The multiple Podcast Awards wins should qualify this podcast for notability. Macko74 (talk) 13:23, 7 March 2012 (UTC)

Agreed with Macko74 Mctechuciztecatl (talk) 10:52, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Improvements?
How can we improve it? We removed the external links, can you give more suggestions? thank You — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jose ramonmt (talk • contribs) 18:18, 31 October 2012
 * The tone is too chatty, the references are not independent enough, the article lifts content that appears elsewhere without making it clear that the content has been quoted thus making that content a copyright violation. I suggest you consult some of the articles in Wikipedia Good Articles for examples of well-written, well-sourced Wikipedia articles and try to make this article resemble them.

Thanks Shearonink for your help. I did some changes. Removed some information to make it more neutral. Removed external links and added quotes and citations. Made it less chatty. Questions. How can I add more citations? The podcasts relies on what we the listeners say so not so much external references and that is why is based on primary sources. Suggestions? Thank you for your help. Have a great day. --Jose ramonmt (talk) 18:28, 18 November 2012 (UTC)


 * First of all, you provide a lot of detailed explanations of products, which is the reason for the "ad" tag at the top. Trim down the product descriptions, and that should help tremendously. Also, for citations, can you find more newspaper articles or TV news network website articles? Those would help the citations. If you need more help, feel free to reopen this by removing the tl template at the top and replacing it with Help me. Thanks! gwickwire &#124; Leave a message 19:46, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

Thank you Gwickwire for your help and advices. I trimed product descriptions and removed some other information that could be seen as an ad. Also I searched for new citations and found some like Colleges in which host have done talks and some blogs and pages where the podcast is recommended and other citations like iTunes comments. No TV news websites articles or newspapers yet found. Could you give other options? or suggestions. Thank you! Have a great day!. Jose ramonmt (talk) 17:42, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

Good, but that may have not been enough. Tsar Rostov (talk) 21:26, 2 November 2023 (EST)

Hi, I Did some changes and added new sources. Can you please tell me what can I do so the tags at the top can be removed? Thank You. Jose ramonmt (talk) 16:49, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Quick answer; solve the issues and remove the tags. Long answer; ensure that it doesn't read as promotional and use sources unrelated (i.e. those without a positive or negative) conflict of interest interest and then remove the tags when its felt that the issues have been resolved. If you need any more help please replace the tag. -- wintonian   talk  18:57, 11 December 2012 (UTC)

Reliable Secondary Sources
I almost nominated this article for PROD, but I decided to do a quick google search and found a few good articles. I'm going to drop them here for someone else to add to the article in the future. TipsyElephant (talk) 17:53, 15 June 2021 (UTC)
