Talk:Carlyle Group
CALL FOR DISCUSSION
Good to see you taking an interest in this article, Patrick. I note however that some of the material is lifted directly from the Carlyle Group website, and no mention is made of this fact. I don't assume their website is the unvarnished truth, so please exercise circumspection - companies can and do lie on their websites, and even more insidious are carefully crafted slants/omissions. Please use a citation when copying chunks of potentially contentious material. I find it's usually better to choose your own words, which I have no doubt are more trustworthy than those of the Carlyle Group's "professionals":). You will have noticed my preference for writing things from scratch, rather than importing large chunks. I find that this leads to clearer, more focused articles. I'll probably write some guidelines about importing text soon - please feel free to air your thoughts in the meanwhile, everyone, on this important topic. Robin (talk) 15:20, 11 August 2014 (IST)
