There's a couple of companies mentioned in wikipedia page which I don't think adds value to the content Colettemullen (talk) 08:59, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Resolving issue related to the article being from a neutral point of view[edit]

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

To resolve the issue about the article being from a neutral point of view here are 2 suggestions

- Remove the following paragraph as it doesn't add value to the article:

Davnet Promotes Turner To Board Monday 10 July 2000 | 00:00 CET | News "ROBERT (Hal) Turner has been appointed to the Davnet board with immediate effect the company announced on Friday. In May, Turner was appointed as chief executive of Davnet Asia. Prior to joining Davnet, Turner was chief executive of New World Telephone in Hong Kong. Eric Chan takes over responsibility for Asian operations, and will report to Turner. Bill Liao has stepped down as a director to create a place for Turner on the board."

- Remove this line - "Liao is founder of the WeForest Movement, a non-profit organization set up to counter global warming through reforesting the Earth". A very similar line was mentioned later in the article.

Done, thanks. The removed paragraph looked like a copy-paste from somewhere, and was thus probably copyrighted text. Note you don't need permission to remove a tag like that if you think the issue is resolved; I don't have any more "authority" to do that than you do. Adrian J.

Notability[edit]

The article references mainly the subject's business ventures' websites as sources, as well as press releases. Not a lot is out there, so I'm suggesting this page does not fulfill notability requirements. Happy to discuss! Theborgio (talk) 18:55, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
