NPOV tag
[edit]I removed the NPOV tag. The article isn't written to encyclopedic standards, but one shouldn't post the tag unless unless you're willing to discuss the POV issues on the talk page. Majoreditor 20:59, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Ogilvyonadvertising.jpg
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Image:Ogilvyonadvertising.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:52, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Serious overhaul
[edit]This article is a minefield of unsupported claims non NPOV statements and needs to be seriously copy-edited. I will try and find the time but any help is appreciated. Dom from Paris (talk) 10:04, 26 May 2018 (UTC)≥
Internal consistency: first wife
[edit]The article initially implies that Ogilvy's first wife was Sophie Louise Blew-Jones but later says that his first wife was Melinda Street. Note that genealogical records give Sophie Louise Blew-Jones as the name of his maternal grandmother. 94.174.82.232 (talk) 11:28, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
Intelligence Reports
[edit]While mentioned in the article and in his Ogilvy published biography, there is no primary source available for Ogilvy's Intelligence reports during WWII from either the UK's National Archive of intelligence agencies or the Dwight D. Eisenhower presidential library (though records of the Phycological [Strategy] Board do exist).
These reports would likely be unclassified/open source by now. Is anyone able to find these and cite them? It is remarkable that the AGA selling manual is available but these more impactful documents aren't referenced. Thank you! Tylerdore (talk) 19:25, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
Requested move 23 January 2024
[edit]- The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
The result of the move request was: Not moved. No possibility of consensus to move, there is even a rough consensus not to move. Andrewa (talk) 07:20, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
David Ogilvy (businessman) → David Ogilvy – By far the most important and notable person with this name, compared to others, which are cricketers and Scottish nobility. 777burger user talk contribs 03:48, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose. No evidence of primary topic. For Wikipedia:Disambiguation#Is there a primary topic? to apply, he should be "more likely than all the other topics combined to be the topic sought", but that is not confirmed by monthly or daily page views. Celia Homeford (talk) 11:59, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose. David Ogilvy, 13th Earl of Airlie, at least, is pretty notable! -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:50, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose per above. estar8806 (talk) ★ 15:52, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
- Weak oppose per Celia Homeford. Crouch, Swale (talk) 16:58, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
