Talk:Qnet ltd
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Article has multiple problems - please discuss
I have tagged the article with multiple tags, such as "Cleanup", "POV", "Unreliable sources" etc. The article is very messy and is impossible to read. Facebook is not considered a reliable source, nor is the company's publications for most information. The article is badly formatted. Please see Wikipedia style guide for standards on how articles should be organized and written. Also see Wikipedia:Citing sources for help in adding references to articles.
The editors of this article should discuss the needed changes to this article on this talk page before editing further. It would be helpful if you could get help from other, uninvolved editors.
The articles is way too long and confusing. It needs to be shortened considerably.
Large parts of it seem to be copy/paste from sources and not rewritten by the editors. Also, sources in foreign languages are not preferable on the English Wiki and should be supported by sources in English.
I am only mentioning some of the problems. Please, all editors work together to create a concise, readable article that follows the rules of neutral point of view and no original research.

- I agree for the most part but I strongly disagree on the foreign language sources. Maybe that's not what you meant but your sentence says something like "foreign language sources should be backed up by English sources". That's not what our policies say. Qnet is a multinational company/scam that has being doing business/damage all over the world and if the only coverage of its Afghan successes/misdeeds is in Pashto, we should definitely use that.

- Thanks for help. I want to note that this source' URL -#53- has the word "FaceBook" but its an article in a well-know newspaper in Egypt, I don't know why it contains "Facebook", most likely it's the username of the article's writer, but the URL doesn't lead to a Facebook page at all.
- I also agree with Pichpich considering the point of (foreign language), the The view of Islamic law for example, can't be sourced by any English source, as all the Fatwas are in Arabic, Arabic is considered a part of religion in Islam.--Peterjmikhail (talk) 01:18, 12 November 2011 (UTC)
- I've started a section about this article at WP:NPOVN, to get wider input about the state of the article. The discussion (while active) is at Wikipedia:Neutral point of view/Noticeboard#Qnet ltd. —C.Fred (talk) 15:38, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
