Yes, again. You read that right. InfiniteNexus (talk) 05:52, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Remove infobox from this article

The "X" infobox does not make sense being here, as the article for X is at Twitter. It is a duplicate infobox which can only confuse readers. 77.132.40.108 (talk) 18:13, 17 September 2024 (UTC)

@Cambalachero Here is why I think so. What do you think 77.132.40.108 (talk) 18:15, 17 September 2024 (UTC)
You are correct, that infobox was entirely inappropriate for this article. Thank you for removing it. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 18:22, 17 September 2024 (UTC)
There's no such a thing as a "no duplicate infoboxes" rule, so there's no need to remove it. It comes in the package from the moment it was decided to have a "Twitter under Elon Musk" article distinct from the "Twitter" article. Cambalachero (talk) 18:33, 17 September 2024 (UTC)
@Cambalachero: What package? Infobox website isn't a part of any package as far as I can tell and infobox website is not an appropriate infobox for a page about a specific era of a website's history not the website itself. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 20:53, 17 September 2024 (UTC)
FYI, this was added when this article was briefly moved to X (social network) as part of a split of Twitter before this was overturned by move review. InfiniteNexus (talk) 00:37, 19 September 2024 (UTC)

@Nedia020415 Why? Maybe with Acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk, if anything. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:33, 14 December 2024 (UTC)

This article has major neutrality problems

While looking for material for the Criticism of Twitter, I ended up copying more than half of the content from here to there. Which also shows that this article is grossly unbalanced towards criticism of Twitter post-acquisition period. I suggest summarizing much of the criticism (it is now copied to a dedicated article where it is more WP:DUE); it would be also good to expand this article here with something "nice" to say about this topic (if possible). I presume some folks praise Twitter/X and its evolution under Musk - their views don't seem to be represented here in a due fashion (unless I am wrong and Twitter is being nearly universally criticized in the past few years...). Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:31, 14 December 2024 (UTC)

I was initially on the same track as you, but doing an overview of sources not on the page indicates that the coverage is almost universally negative. The best I can find is people praising Musk's acquisition of the platform but for the period where Twitter is actually under Elon Musk I'm drawing a pretty big blank.
