Advertisement Warning?
editLooks like my edits triggered the maintenance template and is showing a warning on promotional content. Any ideas specifically what might be triggering this? The main copy that I updated was up top. For now, I can revert back to the original (but keeping the name change since they did officially announce that) and then try to figure out what is setting it off. Any help and/or suggestions are most welcome! JustinDeco (talk) 14:47, 26 March 2018 (UTC)
- I just removed the current advert warning tag, which was dated August 2018. I don't see anything in the current article that warrants it. —BarrelProof (talk) 20:54, 9 February 2020 (UTC)
Modifications?
editThis page has been altered heavily and poorly. I uses this page in Novemeber and it had much more information and did not have the ill-placed black sections or redundant paragraphs.

Not only that, but almost the entire paragraph under the Accolades section should be removed, as it sounds like someone who had a bad experience with Expedia decided to voice their complaint here. Here is the text that I vote should be removed:
"However, the company still has a ways to go. Even trip planning specialist and managers at the company don't seem to have much knowledge about flight details and trip planning. Also, if dealing with Expedia, make sure that they match up your flights or the resulting faulty itinerary may cause problems at the airport that may force you to cancel a well deserved vacation or important trip. The company also tends to not be very responsible when it comes to admitting problems in their planning or itinerary, so don't expect any sort of refund or deal if they do cause you to have to cancel your trip."

The last paragraph of accolades: In what year? This sentence sounds bizarre "Expedia Inc. Named One of “America’s Best Managed Companies” by Forbes — Forbes’ list of the 400 best managed, public American companies with $1 billion or more in revenues includes Expedia for the first time." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.148.15.106 (talk) 22:46, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
Does this entire "accolades" thing belong in wikipedia? What is this, NPR? Maybe if there were equal time for the "complaints"...but really, wikipedia is not the place for this gibberish. This entire page is like some giant can of junk created by a mid level PR flack. Rickbolger (talk) 17:41, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
Expedia.com
editWhat is expedia.com? is it a subsidiary of Expedia, Inc.? I'm a little bit confused about the assignment as product inside the article. I think that product is also not absolut correct. -- Raubsaurier (talk) 20:50, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
- Expedia (website) Is a company, that is owned by Expedia In, the parent company.
- I think we should merge the two pages together and clean it up. Right now, they're both quite messy, but I feel like wasting my time improving them, when the correct path is to first merge the two. Amin (Talk) 12:28, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
pure speculation re google
editThe article states
Initially, it was widely speculated that Google wanted to occupy most of the building, but a crane accident in 2006 caused delay and Google backed out of the project.
With the this seattlepi as a reference. HOWEVER, the article explicitly states it's pure speculation.
One prospective tenant was Google, which was seriously looking at taking most of the space in the building last summer. The collapse of a construction crane at Tower 333 in November, which killed a man in a nearby building and delayed the project, may have caused Google to look elsewhere.
How did "MAY HAVE CAUSED" turned into "CAUSED" in article.
Note that this is actually NOT the real reason (neither the accident nor the delay) they did not take the space AT ALL. So this is nonsense altogether. --64.134.146.167 (talk) 01:20, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
Draft for CEO Mark Okerstrom
editHi, my name is Victoria and I am a representative of Expedia Group. I am a paid employee of the company and therefore have a financial conflict of interest. I've submitted a new article for Expedia Group's CEO, Mark Okerstrom and it was declined. I am surprised since I was careful to properly cite all statements in the draft with quality sourcing. Are there any editors interested in this topic that would please take a look at my draft submission here and offer feedback? Thanks in advance!
