copyright controversey needs to be revised. It reads like someone's opinion piece and not like an encyclopedia. CHM 01:00, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
I slightly agree, although, point of view is varied. Anyhow, the page is now incircled by the Entertainment Technology WikiProject, so "Help is on the way" if you will. -- Wforlines 03:16, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
I have a feeling that someone inside the company company is editing this page. I already cleaned this page for neutrality once, and parts have been rewritten to a biased point of view. - October 7th 2006
- I don't think so. The criticism section is quite "against" behringer.--Leonardo Horovitz 02:30, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
Terrible spelling in the 'controversy' section, lacking in sources etc. - Xiang 8 Oct 2006
Needs some sources -- Gronkmeister | Contrib 15:03, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
However bias the Copyright Controversy section might be, it's no-where near as one-sided as the "Products" section. It's a statement of fact that the brand is often regarded poorly, and has been challenged about designs - but to speculate on the supposed performance and value of equipment is well beyond the scope of an unbias article.
Reads like a marketing piece
Statements like "offer a quality that competes and is comparable with competitors products" are clearly offering a point of view, especially in light of the fact that Behringer gear is widely derided by professional musicians and recording studio personell. 210.239.48.141 04:37, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
About the BCD2000 controversy
I stop it adding again again, try it yourself, if you don't believe that... It however works, if you disable half of your hardware, like the DVD-RW, the WLAN, the BlueTooth and ACPI drivers. If you think, this is OK, I think, you're wrong....

- the problem is not weather or not its true or even believable. it with weather or not its citable. In the edits in its current form, it cites nothing but blogs, and one e-editorial online. These do not satisfy WP:CITE and WP:NOTE. Please read these and determine a way to improve the section before re-adding it. RCHM 22:01, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Edits by BEHRINGER
I am an employee of BEHRINGER, and, in the name of transparency, wanted to explain the edits I made to BEHRINGER's Misplaced Pages article on 4/8/09. It was certainly not my intent to whitewash the article, and I made every attempt not to. The only edits I made were to the information section and product section. The information I provided was not contradicting previous information, but simply adding to it. I did my best not to change the tone of the article. If you have any feedback for me, I would be glad to hear it. I do want to learn more about Misplaced Pages in general. Thanks. Will at BEHRINGER (talk) 19:45, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
- Your contribution was neutral, in my estimation, so thanks for your input. Your use of all-caps may be standard for promotional purposes at your company but at Misplaced Pages the manual of style says, basically, "too bad". I took the all-caps stuff down to lower case, including 'Behringer' and 'Loud'. Binksternet (talk) 20:09, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the feedback and the correction. I tried to read as much as I could, but I missed that one. Thanks Will at BEHRINGER (talk) 21:00, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
Another Question
Before making any further edits, I would like to get feedback from the Misplaced Pages community on the following text as to whether or not it is acceptable. If it is not, what would make it acceptable? It is basically a rewrite of the first section. The info comes from the Behringer website and is meant to supplement the information already provided in the article.
Behringer International GmbH (Behringer) is an audio equipment manufacturer founded in its present form by Uli Behringer in 1989, in Willich, Germany. Today, Behringer has a presence in 10 countries and territories around the world and employs around 3,500 people. Since 2002, Behringer's manufacturing has been based out of Behringer City, an ISO 9001/9002 factory, located in Zhongshan in China's Guangdong province. Behringer produces many of the internal components used in its products including speakers and the pulp for speaker cones. Behringer's stylized ear logo is used to symbolize the company's approach to design as well as represent a nickname that Uli Behringer was given as a young piano student -- "The Ear."
Also, would it be appropriate to create a section entitled Notable Users that included people who use Behringer products such as Alice Cooper? Thank you for your input. Will at BEHRINGER (talk) 22:29, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
I updated the products section to list a more complete and up-to-date description of Behringer's product offerings. I used Behringer's current product catalog as a citation as there is really no other way to cite that information. Will at BEHRINGER (talk) 16:42, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
- Sure, use that lead section text if you like. I don't think specific examples of speakers and pulp for cones are needed in the lead paragraph, but those details could be used later in the article text. I would put the logo sentence in its own paragraph.
- As for lists of artists... sure, I always like to see which artists are hard up for cash. Binksternet (talk) 17:53, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
- Of course, please don't forget that it must all be verified by the use of reliable third-party sources. TalkIslander 19:45, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
