Frequently asked questions

This section is here to provide answers to some questions that have been previously discussed on this talk page.

Q1: Why does the lead of this article say that posts on Parler often contain antisemitism?

A1: A request for comment determined that this statement should be included in the lead: Talk:Parler/Archive 2#RfC: Should "antisemitism" be removed from the lead?

Q2: Why does this article look different than articles about other social networks, like Twitter?

A2: The coverage of Parler in reliable sources is very different from the coverage of Twitter. We strive to represent fairly, proportionately, and, as far as possible, without editorial bias, all the significant views that have been published by reliable sources on a topic (WP:NPOV), and so if the sourcing is very different, the articles will be too. If you think changes need to be made to another article, please discuss them at that article's talk page. When contributing to this talk page, please keep in mind WP:OTHERCONTENT.

It is worth noting that this article is quite similar to other articles on social networks and websites which are also known for extremist userbases, such as Gab, 8chan, BitChute, etc.

The subject of this article is controversial and content may be in dispute. When updating the article, be bold, but not reckless. Feel free to try to improve the article, but don't take it personally if your changes are reversed; instead, come here to the talk page to discuss them. Content must be written from a neutral point of view. Include citations when adding content and consider tagging or removing unsourced information.

Parler is currently owned by PDS Partners, LLC- Elise Pierotti, and Ryan Rhodes are a part of that group. https://innovation-village.com/right-wing-social-media-site-parler-to-relaunch-early-2024-ahead-of-the-presidential-election/ Correction7777 (talk) 18:05, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lets wait till after it has launched. Slatersteven (talk) 18:08, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: It is both unclear precisely what change you are requesting, and also not an uncontroversial change, per Slatersteven's comment. PianoDan (talk) 21:44, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia page says parler was a social networking app. It should say parler is a social networking app, you can download it on the Google Play store right now.[edit]

Update Wikipedia please. The info about this app is wrong.you can download it now on Google Play store. 98.17.148.8 (talk) 07:36, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Change of "Parler was used to coordinate the 2021 storming of the U.S. Capitol"[edit]

Parler itself was not responsible for coordinating the 2021 storming of the U.S. Capitol. Request to change description of events to "people/actors used Parler to coordinate the 2021 storming of the U.S. Capitol". Alphaomega321123 (talk) 15:47, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Parler was used" does not state or imply that Parler itself was responsible for any coordination. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 15:51, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am unsure we do not really already say that, we do not say "parler coordinated". We make it clear the platform was used, not that it did it. Slatersteven (talk) 15:53, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
