Talk:Parachute music festival

Untitled
I'm changing 'It is claimed to be the largest such festival outside of the United States, with over 24,000 people attending.' in accordance with the policy against weasel words. At the moment, I'm changing it to the safe-NPOV option 'It has had attendance of over 24,000 people.', but if anyone has any sources regarding this claim of largest-non-US-Christian-music-festival please feel free to put it back in (with the source given).

I was going to say 'The organisers claim it to be the lar...', but I'm not sure the organisers actually make any such claim. Having a hunt around the official website didn't turn up anything useful. --Dom 12:11, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

As an organiser, our understanding is that it is the largest Christian weekend music festival event outside of the US and no one has disputed this as yet!! I guess we will keep claiming that until someone proves it wrong!

We seem to have added the 2007 headlines twice can someone cleanup Nzv8fan 08:07, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Wiki Policies
The entry at the moment seems in conflict with some policies. "Wikipedia is not a space for personal promotion or the promotion of products, services, Web sites, fandoms, ideologies, or other memes. If you're here to tell readers how great something is, or to get exposure for an idea or product that nobody's heard of yet, you're in the wrong place."

QUOTE: Wikipedia:NOT#DIRECTORY ; "Directories, directory entries, electronic program guide, or a resource for conducting business. For example, an article on a radio station generally should not list upcoming events, current promotions, phone numbers, current schedules, etc." UNQUOTE

This raises the serious question whether upcoming artists for each year should really be listed at all in this article.

To obviate this problem, I have merely reordered the article without any other changes so that the artist list is not at the top of the article.
