"Controversy"

I don't want to run afoul of any Wikipedia policy on what constitutes "controversy," but is what currently exists in the "Controversy" section really that? I don't think people being confused about relatively obvious satire is all that controversial. Nor is the quasi-philosophical question as to whether ClickHole is "clickbait parody" or "parody-as-clickbait." Efyeahimamarxist (talk) 15:23, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It took a while but since the Controversy section did not contain any actual controversy I merged it with the Reception section. Comments from critics, and the audience failing to understand that the site was satirical broadly fits under Reception. -- 109.78.248.150 (talk) 13:11, 14 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

um, what?

"it was revealed that the ClickHole team meets frequently to brainstorm about new ideas and topics that can be written about."

Is this supposed to be some kind of Onion satire? Pretty sure every news/satire/writing organization on the planet "meets frequently to brainstorm" ... this is written like it was some great big reveal. Scrap this entire section, it's irrelevant. Nothing different than what every news/satire organization does. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yellowjournalism (talk • contribs) 03:20, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If you see a problem, you're encouraged to be bold and fix it. – Muboshgu (talk) 04:07, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
