I'm shocked this article has no mention of the deplatformed site Parlor or it's relationship to Jan 6th. This was an extremely Notable new event, and is very relevant. Source: http://time.com/5929888/amazon-parler-aws/ 146.143.4.15 (talk) 14:39, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello User:Glman,

I'm starting this discussion to follow best practices after you reverted my recent edit to this article. My goal is to understand the specific concerns and find a consensus to re-add the sourced information in a way that meets the community's standards.

The revert summary noted "some major bias issues." I understand that sections dealing with customer criticism require a very careful, neutral tone. However, your revert also removed several straightforward, factual updates that I believe were uncontentious.

To be constructive, I'd like to separate the issues. The edit included: 1. **Factual Announcements:** Sourced information on Amazon Nova and Project Rainier from the 2024 re:Invent conference. 2. **Sourced Criticism:** An expansion of the "Issues" section with sourced details on surprise bills, pricing complexity, and data egress fees.

I believe the announcements from re:Invent are objective facts and their removal has made the article less current. Would you object to me re-adding just that part first?

After that, I am more than happy to post my drafted text for the "criticism" section here for us to review together, so we can refine the wording to ensure it is 100% compliant with WP:NPOV.

My only goal here is to improve the article with verifiable, relevant information. I look forward to collaborating on a solution.

Thank you, Niranjan Ramamurthy (talk) 19:37, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
