User talk:FacultiesIntact/sandbox/Girl Scout Cookies

Continued from Talk:Girl Scout Cookies#Collaborating to improve the article

Regarding the removal of the discontinued cookies: I moved that content into a separate sandbox so I could focus on the remaining content. I saw that the entire section was poorly sourced, but I want to conduct additional research to support the information rather than remove it outright.

As far as removing content from the lead goes, it was either outdated or unsupported. The figure that 10-15% of net revenue goes to local councils is outdated, as it’s actually 100% now per this Vox article. I also felt that those figures were overly specific for the lead section. I removed the line “The program is designed to be led and conducted by girls and not led by adult troop leaders, volunteers or parents” because another user correctly pointed out to me that we don’t have a reliable source for that line, i.e., the only source for it is the GSUSA, and thus is unsuitable for inclusion. The other notable deletions I made were:

in the Varieties section for lack of relevance
in the Sales section for being unsupported
in the Varieties section for being unsupported or irrelevant

Please let me know if there's anything else that stands out to you. I want to ensure the quality of the article going forward.--FacultiesIntact (talk) 22:02, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
