Controversy section[edit]

This section appears to be dated, has undue weight and the citations are mostly dead links. It is also not best practice to even have a controversy section. I almost deleted the whole thing. I'll leave it a while with citation requests but would support any other editor who wishes to just delete it. I think the WP:ONUS would be on editors seeking to retain it to show how this is relevant for an encyclopaedic page page. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 16:07, 18 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Drplent and WikiDan61 I noticed a back and forth over this section. This is the place to have a chat about it. I think there is a case to remove it, but we can't edit war when another editor has objected to the removal. I do agree that the information is dated, and I don't think a food fight 8 years ago is really due for the article. However if there are secondary sources showing it was underperforming, we might make mention of those. Thoughts? Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 19:51, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Drplent and Sirfurboy: I'll agree to the removal of the controversy section. I was not willing to let it happen without a discussion, but I agree with the points made here. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 20:25, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
