Redundancy with Match.com

[edit]

I wanted to note that the Match.com article currently includes a lot of content about brands owned and acquired by Match Group, which would be much more appropriate for this page. Proposing migrating much of that content to this page and keeping Match.com's focus primarily on that service.Balle010 (talk) 19:30, 8 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Request

[edit]

Hi FeldBum Thanks again for your help on Shar Dubey’s page.

Here are the edits for Match Group:

In April 2019, Match Group announced a restructuring of its leadership team, appointing three new general managers in Asia to help accelerate international growth in Japan, Taiwan, India, South Korea and other parts of Southeast Asia, where there are over 400 million singles. In August 2019, Match Group announced a majority investment in Muslim dating service, Harmonica. Match Group has also tailored its existing products, such as OkCupid, to better serve international markets and its cultural norms and behaviors. This includes creating a unique subset of questions for users to fill out that touch on the moral, ethical, political and social issues that speak to each specific culture. This localization strategy has proved successful in multiple countries such as India, where they have seen a significant spike in downloads.

Thank you again for all your help!!

Hi LeannaTruong
That's a lot. Let me look through each one and get back to you.
Thanks!

Hi again LeannaTruong
Most of these look good, but I'll need to make some changes. My notes.
  • 1-7 looks good. I'll make those as is
  • 8 (Safety Advisory Council) need to be rewritten, but the source is good. I'll change a bit
  • 9 also needs a rewrite. That's a long quote.
  • 10 too. That's very promotional
  • 11 Fortune.com is not a good source for Fortune 100. Do you have another source? I'll take a quick look
  • 12 is a little copy-pasted and little market-y, so I’ll edit
  • 14 needs a rewrite ("it" for companies, not "they") but sources are good
  • 16 is also very quote-heavy. See Wikipedia:Quotations
  • 17: again, not sure about these giant quotes. Maybe just “which Match Group disputed as cherry-picked and misrepresenting internal emails.” You're venturing into overuse of quotes
  • 18 needs a rewrite (“it” instead of “they,” some overly marketing-ish text, but I’m OK with it being a separate section, although maybe best as a sub section under History.
I'll start with the easy ones, then do the rewrites. Can you look for a source for Fortune 100?

Hi again LeannaTruong,
Done most of these. The long quotes still need to be rewritten (I added one in as I rewrote it), and I need a third-party citation for Thomas Gaissmaier and Fortune list.
I can take a stab at those rewrites, along with the internal section, and then I'll close this request.

Citation needed on the continued operations on Russia claims.

Narrative style

[edit]

The history section in particular has plenty of excellent detail, but it reads as a timeline of disconnected events rather than as a narrative. HussainHx (talk) 03:38, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
