Yup, scroll to the botton - "Trump Winery is a registered trade name of Eric Trump Wine Manufacturing LLC, which is not owned, managed or affiliated with Donald J. Trump, The Trump Organization or any of their affiliates." Legacypac (talk) 07:45, 27 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Request for semi-protection

edit

Semi-protection: Trump is an extremely polarising figure who is very prone to vandalism. All Trump-related activities should be vandalism protected. I apologize if this is not the correct format.

  Not done Please see WP:PREEMPTIVE; we don't preemptively protect pages simply because of a risk of vandalism; only when the vandalism has occurred at a rate that would require us to stop it (for the most part) do we protect pages. SkyWarrior 04:20, 31 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
Furthermore, the talk page of an article is not the place to request protection; the correct place would be WP:RfPP. SkyWarrior 04:22, 31 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

False Claims

edit

Why does the article include false claims by Trump about the winery's size? It promptly notes they are false, but why should an encyclopedia include false claims at all?

Contradiction

edit

This statement is completely contradictory: "The winery's 227 acre vineyard is the largest in Virginia and its French vinifera acreage is the largest on the East Coast.[10][23] In March 2016, Donald Trump stated publicly that he owned "the largest winery on the East Coast"[8][9] which Politifact surmised as a ‘false statement' noting the winery makes 36,000 cases of wine per year, roughly half the production of Williamsburg Winery or Chateau Morrisette Winery.[24][25]" We're either defining "largest" by acreage or by wine production. Which is it? To say both here and to "fact-check" seems disingenuous. Fast4lax (talk) 14:39, 24 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
