Talk:DJ Umek

POV=

Agreed. This is really biased. Needs major revision. 216.36.9.204 (talk) 23:17, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Parts of this article are really subjective. Needs re-writing in places. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.0.207.212 (talk) 23:06, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

Agree. This article is biased and most importantly, copied from his biography on [residentadvisor.net]. Need a rewrite or remove. Luka666 (talk) 00:53, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

There seems to be little doubt that the content was published elsewhere first. In the first substantial change to the text made to the article, within hours of the text dump that is duplicated, the words "And it seems he made the right decision at the crucial time" were altered to "It seems that he has made the right decision". The external site uses the original language. Within a very short time, promotional language such as "seducing the masses with his own music blend for more than a decade" was removed from the article, yet it too appears in the source. If they copied from us, they would have had to have done so immediately after publication. It is possible that the content was placed by an authorized agent, but we would need verification of this to retain it...and it would almost certainly need to be heavily revised to deal with the conflict of interest. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 21:54, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
