Talk:The Utilikilts Company

Untitled
In case anyone wanders by, I fleshed out this stub a bit using newspaper articles collected on the old Utilikilts website (found through archive.org). I tracked down and linked the articles that I could, but had to rely mostly on copies archived on Utilikilts own site. I've no reason to suspect any of the articles were edited (or totally faked), but they weren't direct scans so it's impossible to prove without subscribing to the pay-for-access archives of most of the newspaper's websites. They claim worldwide sales, and seem to hit many Scottish or Celtic festivals around the US, so perhaps there's more local coverage elsewhere. --InkSplotch 03:33, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Commercial Success: a recurring character in the webcomic "The Trenches" wears a kilt, which he has confirmed is a Utilikilt. http://trenchescomic.com/comic/post/attire --Eagle52997 192.33.240.95 (talk) 19:27, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

Wil Wheaton has tweeted on occasion that he wore a Sport Kilt on The Guild, not a Utilikilt. See [], [], and [] 66.193.41.206 (talk) 20:59, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

This article DOES have a neutral POV
Perhaps the complainant has anti-LGBT views? I've noted that UtiliKilts are popular in Seattle among gay men, especially in the Queen Anne neighborhood (local fashion trend) of Seattle. The Seattle times does require a subscription and the local neighborhood newspapers don't have online archives. However I'm miffed at Wikipedia's incredible stupidity in not allowing information about a company (this is a company not a product) to come from the company's web site or from SEC filings. If the information is public and not copyrighted it should be included. I think a note to the unwise that a company's website MIGHT be biased seems superfluous.

 * Please read Offline sources and WP:PAYWALL. It's of no concern that some articles are behind paywalls or are not online. Cite them as you would any source. If you want to add information, please do so. I don't follow anything else you've said. The article is currently written like an advertisement and should be rewritten in a more neutral tone. Pulling in self-published sources is not the solution to that. Company sources may be cited for uncontroversial facts but anything that might be challenged should come from an independent source. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 02:22, 27 September 2013 (UTC)
