This article would really benefit from the addition of a photo or so — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.3.124.63 (talk) 19:01, 23 October 2014 (UTC) Why does this article not include complaints, or the fact that their videos are reccommended without watching them? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.196.155.69 (talk) 20:11, 24 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

IP address 69.70.237.82 in Montreal's edits

[edit]

An IP address in the same city as the company is based is making quite a few edits on the article. Most of their edits on the site are on this article.

They also re-worded the plagiarism accusations to shift blame away from the company.

It seems suspicious to me. --Kbbbb (talk) 12:22, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Larry Bundy Jr.

[edit]

Someone is trying to put blame on Larry Bundy Jr. by describing it as he publishes "fake news". Pretty low, even for WatchMojo... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.226.238.139 (talk) 11:59, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Changes to the first paragraph

[edit]

Hi fellow editors

I changed the first paragraph to include more current information about WatchMojo and included additional information that is consistent with the rest of the article. Please let me know if there are mistakes or any advise about editing this part of the article.AjLing1501 (talk) 04:51, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Neutrality tag

[edit]

@Vortex3427:, you messaged me directly but replying here so other editors can view this. For example, the lead says "They create a very high volume of short videos with low production costs, particularly enticing Top 10 listicles", with enticing liking to "clickbait", which seems more like criticism. Also the Business and Content section don't seem well organized and maybe essay like. Regards IgelRM (talk) 11:45, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@IgelRM: Thanks for the response! I'll see what I can do to make it more neutral; I admit that I am personally biased against WatchMojo and think of it as a content farm (which probably has gone into the article), and that I have had a lot of trouble organizing the article. However, I do not see what's essay-like about the Business and Content sections. "Business" gives an overview of their operations, and "Content" gives an overview of how their content has changed over the years, along with reception of that content. I used the quoteboxes as a sort-of stylistic choice, but I am not unsure if they should be there. I also don't know if all of the opinions cited should be there, although I have used academic sources mostly. Should I remove The Daily Dot? I'm not sure if it's reliable enough to be cited (although Luke Winkie is an experienced journalist) and I admit that I may have included it because of my own personal biases.— VORTEX3427 (Talk!) 12:32, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
