Talk:Smith (advertising agency)

Untitled

Cleanup areas for this article:

• NPOV -- reads like a press release. "one of the world’s leading" is bad -- who says? Is there a citation for this? This is non-neutral language.
• be more clear about what the company does. What exactly is "technologically enabled digital experiences"? Web design? something else? Wikipedia is not written for industry, it's written for the general public.
• needs to be wikified & linked to other articles
• needs to be dated -- "currently" is bad, as the article will date (currently when?)
• Needs citations. How do we know who their clients are? Or when they were founded? Was this written by an employee? Even if factually correct, still needs citations for verification. The company website is not good enough; need outside citations too.
• See the advice in Wikipedia:Guide_to_writing_better_articles re: tone & style.

Also see: notability for organizations & companies -- talks about citations.

I did some work on cleaning up the language. Could still use some citations, etc. -- phoebe/(talk) 18:27, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Not notable

I don't think the subject of this article meets the notability threshold established by Wikipedia:Notability_(organizations_and_companies). To avoid being nominated for deletion, please address this.Wowaconia (talk) 20:28, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

Inaccurate

In addition to being not notable it is factually inaccurate. The article states that they're in Seattle but the company's own page states that it is in Bellevue (a city east of Seattle). Lcmclaughlin (talk) 18:18, 31 March 2014 (UTC)good catch, someone changed it to Seattle so its now accurate.

SMITH → SMITH (company) – Meets neither aspect we look for in PRIMARYTOPIC against SMITH (artist). Pageviews of both are very low, but the company still comes in second. SMITH should redirect to the disambiguation page Smith. Egsan Bacon (talk) 04:59, 26 June 2021 (UTC)

The RM template doesn't like pageview links in it, so here it is: Past 90 days. Egsan Bacon (talk) 04:59, 26 June 2021 (UTC)

• Support a move not an acronym, but to Smith (advertising agency), multiple Smith companies. We're not here to pander to stylisms. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:31, 26 June 2021 (UTC)
• Support 317 views for the artist v 164 for the company but I'd consider moving to a lower case version per IIO since although the company does use "SMITH" in the contact page we shouldn't unless 3rd party sources do. Crouch, Swale (talk) 08:49, 26 June 2021 (UTC)
• Move to Smith (advertising agency) per IIO and MOS:ALLCAPS / MOS:TM / WP:TITLETM. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 18:29, 26 June 2021 (UTC)
• Support move to Smith (advertising agency) per the above. Retarget SMITH to Smith. BD2412 T 19:13, 26 June 2021 (UTC)
• I would also support Smith (advertising agency). Egsan Bacon (talk) 03:49, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
