The content above is 100% sourced to the website of the foundation. This is an abuse of Wikipedia per almost every part of WP:NOT. Wikipedia is not a webhost for the foundation or anyone else. We are not a catalog to record every grant given by the foundation. WP articles, per every policy, are meant to be sourced to independent, secondary sources. Jytdog (talk) 07:36, 12 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

  • @Jytdog: Many thanks for starting this discussion! I'd like a few details from you to make this discussion more productive: (1) "This is an abuse of Wikipedia per almost every part of WP:NOT" is very vague to me, and I'm not sure what exactly you are trying to say. I also think saying "it violates a lot of things on this very long page" is not very useful for those who believe the tables should be kept, because it allows those who want to remove the tables to change the reason each time. Could you please enumerate all the parts of WP:NOT you think the tables violate, with reasoning for each? (2) In your original revert edit summary you cited WP:PROMO, but you did not specifically bring it up here (although it is in WP:NOT); do you believe the tables to be in violation of this or not? (3) You write "WP articles, per every policy, are meant to be sourced to independent, secondary sources". How would your views on including the tables change (direction and magnitude) if the information can be sourced to independent secondary sources? Riceissa (talk) 20:29, 12 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
The key aspects of WP:NOT that are relevant are WP:NOTEVERYTHING (what Wikipedia is actually for), and the following aspects of what it is not for: WP:PROMO (which includes WP:NOTWEBHOST), WP:NOTCATALOG specifically #7. I went down to the ground here (what WP is for, and what it isn't) because that is the key principle. I cannot imagine that there is any independent source that discusses all the grants, and putting them together in a table would just be WP:SYN which we don't do here. This level of granularity is just not encyclopedic.
I have not yet mentioned WP:UNDUE and should have. Per the NPOV policy we assign WEIGHT based on what independent, secondary sources say, and this huge pile of content sourced solely from the organization's website is UNDUE. Jytdog (talk) 21:26, 12 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Quality of Article is Terrible

edit

This is honestly one of the worst articles I've ever seen. The intro is unnecessarily verbose, the history section not only contains information that is not historical and included in the initiatives section anyway, but is also completely out of order and repetitive at points. The initiatives section reads like a paid advertisement (which, gathering from the template and talk page, it literally is), and there's no mention whatsoever of articles which question the intentions of the foundation's efforts (e.g. with "school choice").

The abundance of citations and random order that some things are in makes it difficult to edit without breaking multiple citations, but I intend on sitting down at some point in the near future and taking a proper scalpel to this article. Whoever the LLC paid to edit it was NOT worth the money. It's a total mess. Kakurokuna (talk) 10:33, 10 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

This is the longest "multiple issues" template I've ever seen. Go ahead and chop it down. AncientWalrus (talk) 22:33, 11 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
