User talk:Cocoaverification

Welcome

Hi, Cocoaverification! (phew, long name.) I noticed your edit on Stop The Traffik, so I thought I'd welcome you to Wikipedia. I hope you decide to carry on editing. If you have any queries about the place, just ask me! I'll probably take a while, I'm about to go on holiday, but I'll be more than to help you out once I get back! For now, I recommened you join an interesting Wikiproject and don't let grumpy users put you off :) p.s. Sorry for originaly putting this on your user page.

Côte d'Or (brand)

Hey

I just reverted the paragraph you added (for the second time) to the Côte_d'Or_(brand) article, about "ethical cocoa sourcing". Please don't just add it again without first making some substantial changes. There are a number of problems with your edit I think:

the citations you provide are not acceptable (both of them are other Wikipedia article that don't even mention Kraft or Côte d'Or).
the criticism section you added is disproportionally long for such a short article.
actually, so far I see no reason why this issue actually belongs on the Côte d'Or page at all. The problem you mention seems to be a general problem with chocolate manufacturers, not just Kraft/Côte d'Or. Again, if you find proper sources for the claim that the behavior of Kraft/Côte d'Or is noticeably different from that of other companies, please add the information. A newspaper article would be a good source, for example.

Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did to Côte d'Or (brand). Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. ←Spidern → 18:43, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Also, note that citing Wikipedia is not allowed, and that we require independent reliable sources. ←Spidern → 18:44, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please note: I have reduced the "ethical sourcing" section to one sentence that can actually be verified by reference to the source. Please do not add additional unsourced material to this section. I have also cut out some spammy stuff in the first section. Also, please remember to use edit summaries when you make your edits. Thank you. – ukexpat (talk) 14:50, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
